Glossary
How to read the Panchang
The five limbs (pancha-anga) of the Hindu almanac, and the timings derived from them.
Tithi
A lunar day: one of thirty phases of the Moon's separation from the Sun. Shukla Paksha is the waxing half, Krishna Paksha the waning half. The tithi at sunrise governs the day.
Nakshatra
The lunar mansion the Moon occupies — one of 27 star groups. Used to choose muhurat and to judge the day's temperament.
Yoga
One of 27 combinations formed by the joint longitude of Sun and Moon; some yogas are favourable, others are avoided for new beginnings.
Karana
Half of a tithi. Eleven karanas rotate through the month; Vishti (Bhadra) is generally avoided for auspicious work.
Rahu Kalam · Yamaganda · Gulika
Daily inauspicious windows derived from the length of the day. Avoid starting new ventures, journeys or ceremonies during them.
Abhijit Muhurat
The auspicious midday window around local noon — a reliable choice when no other muhurat is available.
Chandra & Surya rashi
The sidereal zodiac sign of the Moon and the Sun at sunrise, computed with the Lahiri ayanamsa.
Computed with an astronomical ephemeris; Lahiri ayanamsa approximation. For ceremonies, confirm the muhurat with Hiraman ji or your regional printed panchang.
