Panchang

Importance of reading Today’s Panchang

Today's Panchang is important because it helps you plan your day better. It shows the best times for different activities, tells you about the positions of the planets, and guides you on important rituals. By using it, you can avoid bad times and make sure you do things at the right time.

This can bring more success and harmony to your life, whether you're planning a big event or just going about your daily tasks.

The five elements that make up today's Panchang are Tithi, Vara (day of the week), Nakshatra, Yoga, and Karana. These are used to determine auspicious times. Understanding these five elements and the various good or bad times they create is very important.

On the day of Amavasya, the Sun and the Moon are in the same zodiac sign. After that, as the Sun and Moon move in their paths, the distance they create is called Tithi. Each Tithi is 120 degrees apart. When 360 degrees are completed, the Sun and Moon come together in the same zodiac sign again, marking one lunar month.

The time it takes for the Sun and Moon to create a 120-degree distance is called the Bhogakala of the Tithi. The starting time of the Tithi is recorded in today 's Panchang. To find it, you subtract the zodiac position of the Sun from that of the Moon, divide the result by 12, and the quotient tells you the number of elapsed Tithis. The remainder indicates the part of the current Tithi, which is then converted into hours and minutes and recorded in today's Panchang.

When the phases of the Moon increase during the Tithis (1, 2, 3, 4, etc.), it is called Shukla Paksha, and when the phases decrease, it is called Krishna Paksha. Thus, a lunar month has two fortnights. When the Moon is fully illuminated, it is called Purnima, and when it is completely dark, it is called Amavasya.

When observing things, we usually notice the best things first, followed by things that are similar or slightly lesser. According to this rule, our sages first noticed the Sun, so the first day of the week (Sunday) is dedicated to the Sun. Next, they noticed the Moon, so the second day (Monday) is for the Moon.

Below the Sun's orbit is the Moon's orbit, followed by the orbits of Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, and Saturn.

The second element of today’s panchang is Tithi. According to Muhurat Ganpati (A prominent Muhurat Shastra)

दशमी, १०, एकादशी ११. द्वादशी १२, तेरस १३, चौदस १४ शुक्ल पक्ष में
पूर्णिमा १५
और कृष्ण पक्ष में अमावास्या ३० होती है।॥
और कृष्ण पक्ष में अमावास्या ३० होती

In the Hindu calendar, there are fifteen lunar days, known as "tithis." They begin with the first day after the new moon (Amavasya) and end with the full moon (Purnima). These tithis are named as follows:

Each tithi has a special god or goddess linked to it. It is good luck to do certain activities on specific tithi. For example, weddings and happy events are done on good tithis. Some tithi are not good for certain activities, so those are avoided.
