Panchang for 26 August 2027 in other cities
How this panchang is calculated
The panchang (literally "five limbs") describes the day through five elements: tithi (lunar day, each 12° of Moon-Sun separation), vaar (weekday), nakshatra (the Moon's lunar mansion), yoga (Sun plus Moon, in 27 parts) and karana (half a tithi). Following Hindu custom, the tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana shown are those running at local sunrise in New York, with their end times and the changes that follow later in the day. Read more about the elements in our guide to the Panchang.
Positions of the Sun and Moon are astronomical, in the sidereal zodiac with the Lahiri ayanamsa, and tithi, nakshatra and yoga end times normally agree with printed almanacs to about a minute. Sunrise and sunset use the upper limb of the Sun with standard refraction, the usual astronomical convention; some almanacs use the centre of the disc and show times up to about five minutes different, and Rahu Kaal, Choghadiya and Abhijit shift with them. Times are local time in New York (America/New_York). For ritual dates, confirm with your family priest or local panchang, since traditions differ on some rules.
