Panchang — the five angas पञ्चाङ्ग

Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana and Vara with their end-times, plus the month and the Moon’s and Sun’s signs — computed for this city’s sunrise. Times after midnight use the traditional extended clock (e.g. 27:23 = 03:23 next morning).

Tithi
Panchamiपञ्चमीtill 23:05then Shashthiषष्ठीtill 44:41
What this means

The lunar day. It is set by how far the Moon has pulled ahead of the Sun — each 12 degrees of separation is one tithi. The tithi shapes which activities the tradition favours, and it ends at the time shown, when the next one begins.

Nakshatra
Pushyaपुष्यtill 11:07then Ashleshaआश्लेषाtill 33:18
What this means

The Moon's star-mansion — the patch of sky it sits in today, one of 27. Each nakshatra has its own temperament that classical texts use to judge what the day is good for.

Brihat SamhitaNakshatra chapters (nakshatra qualities)
Yoga
Dhruvaध्रुवtill 10:59then Vyaghataव्याघातtill 31:47
What this means

A combined Sun-and-Moon measure (one of 27 nitya-yogas) — not the physical posture practice. A few yogas, such as Vyatipata and Vaidhriti, are best avoided; most are ordinary.

What this means

Half of a tithi — each lunar day holds two karanas. One of them, Vishti (also called Bhadra), is treated as inauspicious; the rest are workable.

BPHSKarana-jnana-vidhi (11 karanas including Vishti)
Vara
Mangalavaraमङ्गलवार
What this means

The weekday and its ruling planet. Each day's planet colours which tasks the tradition recommends — e.g. Thursday (Jupiter) for auspicious beginnings.

Muhurta ChintamaniVara-prakaranam (weekday lords)
Maasa (Amanta)
Jyeshthaज्येष्ठPravishte/Gate: 25
What this means

The lunar month. India uses two reckonings — Amanta (new-moon to new-moon) and Purnimanta (full-moon to full-moon) — so the name can differ by region. An 'Adhika' (extra) month is inserted to keep the lunar and solar years aligned.

Calendar definition

Chandra Rashi
Karkaकर्कtill 33:18then Simhaसिंह
What this means

The zodiac sign the Moon occupies now. Together with your birth Moon-sign it drives Chandrabala — the Moon's day-to-day favourability for you.

Muhurta Chintamani2.4-2.5 (Chandrabala)
Surya Rashi
Vrishabhaवृषभ

Sidereal (Lahiri) ephemeris; anga end-times computed to the city’s actual sunrise. “Adhika maas” marks an intercalary lunar month (no solar sankranti within it).

How we compute this panchang

Every time on this page is calculated from the actual positions of the Sun and Moon using the Swiss Ephemeris (the same high-precision astronomical engine used by professional astronomers), not from a printed almanac or a fixed table.

  • Sidereal zodiac, Lahiri ayanamsha — the standard used by the Indian government calendar (ayanamsha for this date: 24.2403°). All nakshatra, rashi, tithi and yoga boundaries follow from it.
  • Local true sunrise — muhurta windows (Rahu Kaal, Choghadiya, Hora, Abhijit and the rest) are measured from the true sunrise computed for Chicago's exact coordinates, so they are correct for your location, not a regional approximation.
  • Two month conventions — we show both the Amanta (new-moon-to-new-moon) and Purnimanta (full-moon-to-full-moon) lunar month, because different regions of India follow different ones; an Adhika (intercalary) month is marked when it occurs.

Significance and auspicious/inauspicious flags are drawn from classical texts (Muhurta Chintamani, Brihat Samhita, the Puranas and others) and cited inline — we never assert an effect a text does not state.

Yamaganda Kala - Chicago, 8 June 2027

On Tuesday, 8 June 2027, the Vedic calendar across Chicago carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Dawn breaks at 5:16 AM in Chicago and dipping below the horizon at 8:22 PM, bringing 15 hours 6 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Panchami of Shukla side of the lunar month, and the nakshatra of the day is Pushya. The reigning yoga is Dhruva, completing the core panchang signature for 2027-06-08. The Brahma Muhurta window for Chicago spans 3:40 AM to 4:28 AM — the hour the classics name as most favourable for study and sadhana.
