📖 What is Panchang and Why It Matters
Panchang is an ancient Hindu almanac based on the positions of the Sun, Moon and other planets. The word comes from Sanskrit — pancha meaning five, and anga meaning limb. The five elements are: Tithi, Vaar, Nakshatra, Yoga, and Karana.
In Hinduism, every auspicious activity — weddings, housewarming, starting a business, or long journeys — requires consulting the Panchang for a Shubh Muhurat (auspicious time). Beyond religious purposes, it guides agriculture, seasonal planning, and important personal decisions.
🕉 The Five Elements of Panchang
Tithi is the angular distance between the Moon and Sun. There are 30 Tithis — 15 in Shukla Paksha (waxing) and 15 in Krishna Paksha (waning). Choosing the right Tithi is essential for fasts, worship, and auspicious events.
