The five limbs
Tithi, vara, nakshatra, yoga, karana
Panchang means “five limbs”. Together they describe the quality of the day for ritual, work, and decision. End times are the exact moments each limb gives way to the next.
Nakshatra
Purva Ashadha
The Moon’s lodge. It colours the mood, the people you meet, and the kind of effort that flows.
Ends at 08:28 pm
Yoga
Priti
The Sun and Moon together. It tells you whether the day’s energy is smooth or rough.
Ends at 07:04 am
Karana
Bava

The quiet ninety-six minutes before sunrise. Use it for prayer, study, and any work that needs a still mind.
Abhijit Muhurat
12:11 pm to 01:02 pm
The middle twenty-four minutes of the day. A safe slot for any new beginning, even when the rest of the day looks uncertain.

When to wait
Rahu Kaal
07:53 am to 09:28 am
Hold off on starting anything important. Routine work is fine.
Yamaganda
11:02 am to 12:36 pm
Heavy energy. Not the time to launch, sign, or commit.
Gulika Kalam
02:11 pm to 03:45 pm
Saturn’s son. Whatever begins here tends to drag, so wait it out.
