Today's panchang

Columbus, 25 September

Sunrise, the five limbs, rahu kaal and choghadiya — worked out from the sky over Columbus, not copied from a table.

All five are read at sunrise, which is the convention, and each runs until the time shown. Tithi is the angle between the Moon and the Sun divided by twelve degrees — nothing here is a forecast.

Each is a fixed eighth of the daylight, assigned by weekday — so they move with sunrise and are different in every city. Conventionally avoided for beginnings; there is nothing to be done about them, and no remedy is sold here against them.

Amrit, Shubh and Labh are the ones traditionally chosen for starting something. Chal is ordinary. The rest are avoided by convention — which is a scheduling habit, not a warning.

And on your own chart today?

Everything above is the same for everyone in Columbus. What today is doing to your own chart is not — and that takes thirty seconds and costs nothing.
