What is Daily Panchang?
The Panchang (literally 'five limbs') is the Vedic calendar system that has guided daily life in India for thousands of years. KundliGPT's Panchang gives you all five elements for any date: Tithi (lunar day), Nakshatra (moon's constellation), Yoga (sun-moon angular relationship), Karana (half-tithi), and Var (weekday with planetary ruler). Beyond the basics, you get practical timing tools: Choghadiya shows 8 periods of the day rated as good, neutral, or inauspicious. Gowri Panchang breaks the day into 8 segments ruled by different planets. Rahu Kaal, Yamaghanta, and Gulika timings help you avoid inauspicious windows. The Muhurta table highlights the best times for important activities. All calculations are location-aware — timings shift based on your city's sunrise and sunset.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do Panchang timings vary by location? +
Choghadiya, Rahu Kaal, and other timing systems are calculated from local sunrise and sunset. Since sunrise time differs between cities, the auspicious and inauspicious windows shift accordingly. Always set your correct location for accurate timings.
What is Rahu Kaal and why should I avoid it? +
Rahu Kaal is a daily 90-minute window ruled by Rahu, a shadow planet associated with confusion and obstacles. Vedic tradition advises against starting new ventures, travel, or important decisions during this period. It falls at different times each day of the week.
Can I check Panchang for future dates? +
Yes. Use the date picker to browse any past or future date. All five Panchang elements and timing tables are calculated dynamically for the selected date and your location.
Is Panchang relevant for Western astrology users? +
The Panchang is a uniquely Vedic system with no direct Western equivalent. However, the moon phase (tithi) and lunar mansion (nakshatra) information can complement Western lunar astrology practices.
