The Panchang is a sacred Vedic almanac capturing five essential qualities of each day — helping you move in harmony with cosmic rhythms.
Five Sacred Elements
Tithi, Vara, Nakshatra, Yoga, and Karana - each element reveals a different quality of the day's energy.
Truly Local
Timings for sunrise, Rahu Kaal, and Brahma Muhurta are calculated precisely for your city, not a generic average.
Plan Auspiciously
Choose the best times for ceremonies, travel, new ventures, and important decisions with confidence.
Understanding Rahu Kaal
Rahu Kaal is a daily period of approximately 90 minutes considered inauspicious for new beginnings. It is governed by Rahu (the north lunar node) and falls at different times each day of the week. Starting a journey, signing a contract, or launching a new project during Rahu Kaal is traditionally avoided in Vedic practice — however, continuing ongoing work during this window is perfectly fine.
