Today's Panchang

Indian Vedic Astrology is based on precisely made calculations and for centuries ithas helped us to predict disruptive changes much ahead of time. A crucial element of these calculations is Panchang which, just like any other calendar, tells about the tithi, vaar and planetary positions. It is a much detailed calendar that throws light on important information about the day. Let’s understand the usage of Panchang in detail.

What Is Panchang?

Panchang as the name suggests comprises 5 aspects. It is an astrological calendar that is aligned with the Hindu calendar. One of the prominent Vedic astrology concepts, this calendar shows the position and movement of planets on a daily basis. It is helpful to determine muhurat, tithi etc. that help to know about festivals, vrats and other important events like eclipses. It is recommended to initiate a task considering the panchang. Every day there are shubh muhurats as well as phases like the rahu kaal. If one plans the day keeping in mind the panchang, the chances of success of the person increase multifold. Since minor changes in muhurat can impact the outcome of the work done during that duration, it is important to refer to an panchang developed by a reliable astrologer since it is based on minute calculations.

Panchang covers various details ranging from time of sunrise to nakshatra. But the primary 5 aspects of Panchang are – day of the week (vaar); tithi or the lunar day; nakshatra or the constellation; yoga; and karan.
