The Panchang (meaning “five limbs” in Sanskrit) is the traditional Hindu calendar system used to determine auspicious and inauspicious timings for daily activities. The five elements are Tithi (lunar day), Nakshatra (lunar mansion), Yoga (Sun-Moon angular relationship), Karana (half of a Tithi), and Vara (weekday). Together, these five components provide a complete picture of the cosmic energy available on any given day.
Today in Toronto, the Tithi is Chaturthi (Shukla Paksha), and the Moon occupies Purva Phalguni Nakshatra (Pada 1), ruled by Venus. The prevailing Yoga is Vyatipata, which is traditionally considered unfavourable for major initiations.
All timings on this page are calculated specifically for Toronto (America/Toronto timezone) using the Lahiri Ayanamsa and precise astronomical positions from NASA JPL ephemeris data. Sunrise in Toronto today is at 5:51 AM and sunset at 8:55 PM, giving a day length of 15 hours and 3 minutes.
Rahu Kaal (11:30 AM - 1:23 PM) is a period considered inauspicious for starting new ventures, signing contracts, or beginning journeys. This timing is calculated by dividing the daytime into eight equal parts and assigning the Rahu-ruled segment based on the weekday.
Abhijit Muhurat (12:53 PM - 1:53 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day, occurring around solar noon. It is considered universally favourable for important activities regardless of other unfavourable periods.
Yamaganda (5:09 PM - 7:02 PM) and Gulika Kaal (7:44 AM - 9:37 AM) are additional inauspicious windows. While Rahu Kaal receives the most attention, traditional practitioners also avoid Yamaganda for health-related decisions and Gulika Kaal for financial matters.
Today's tithi in Toronto is Chaturthi (Shukla Paksha). The Tithi is the lunar day, determined by the angular distance between the Sun and Moon. There are 30 Tithis in a lunar month, 15 in each Paksha.
Rahu Kaal in Toronto today is from 11:30 AM to 1:23 PM. During this period, it is advisable to avoid starting new ventures, signing important documents, or beginning journeys.
The Abhijit Muhurat in Toronto today is from 12:53 PM to 1:53 PM. This is the most auspicious time window, ideal for starting important activities, worship, and new beginnings.
The active Nakshatra in Toronto today is Purva Phalguni (Pada 1), ruled by Venus. Nakshatras are the 27 lunar mansions that the Moon transits through, each lasting approximately one day.
