Continue from today's Panchang to yearly dates, festival observances and occasion-specific Muhurat.
A Panchang is the Hindu almanac built from five elements: Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana and Vara. Together they describe the lunar day, stellar position and daily time quality used for vrata, puja and Muhurat decisions.
Panchang timings change by city because sunrise, sunset and the local day boundary depend on latitude and longitude. DevMarg calculates the selected date for Delhi at 28.6139° N, 77.2090° E in the Asia/Kolkata timezone.
DevMarg calculates astronomical positions with Swiss Ephemeris, applies Lahiri ayanamsha and derives the Drik Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga and Karana at local sunrise. Festival and fasting rules are reviewed separately because they can differ by region and religious tradition.
