Today in Agra (27.18°N, 78.01°E), the sun rises at 05:39 am and sets at 07:09 pm, and Rahu Kaal — the inauspicious window best avoided for new beginnings — runs 03:46 pm – 05:27 pm in local time. Every tithi, nakshatra, yoga and muhurta below is computed for Agra’s own sunrise and sunset, not a generic national table.
A panchang is the classical Hindu almanac. The word means “five limbs” — the five elements that define a day in Vedic timekeeping: tithi (lunar day), vara (weekday), nakshatra (the Moon’s constellation), yoga and karana. Together they describe the astrological quality of the day and the auspicious and inauspicious windows within it.
The tithi tracks the Moon’s phase, the nakshatra shows which of the 27 lunar mansions the Moon occupies, the yoga and karana are derived from the Sun–Moon relationship, and the vara is the weekday with its planetary ruler. This page also lists the day’s key muhurtas — auspicious windows such as Abhijit, and inauspicious ones such as Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda and Gulika Kaal.
Every value here is computed for Agra’s exact latitude, longitude and timezone using the Swiss Ephemeris, so the sunrise, sunset and every timing are correct for your location rather than a generic table. Use the auspicious windows to begin important work, and avoid Rahu Kaal and the other inauspicious periods.
The current tithi, with its paksha (waxing or waning phase), is shown in the panchang table above, computed for Agra’s timezone.
Rahu Kaal is a roughly 90-minute inauspicious window each day ruled by Rahu; tradition avoids starting new or important work during it. Its exact time for Agra is listed in the inauspicious timings above.
Tithi (lunar day), vara (weekday), nakshatra (lunar mansion), yoga and karana. Together these five describe the character of the day.
They are calculated from the Swiss Ephemeris using Agra’s precise coordinates and timezone, in the sidereal (Lahiri) system used by traditional panchangs.
