Panchang for Houston — 8 May 2027

Dina Shuddhi (day purity): Shuddha (Pure)Vikram Samvat 2084 (Raudri)Shaka Samvat 1949Mesha (Chaitra)

A pañcāṅga is the day's five limbs — tithi, vāra, nakṣatra, yoga and karaṇa. All five come from the real positions of the Sun and Moon and change through the day, so they are reckoned from Houston (29.7604°, -95.3698°)'s own sunrise — 06:33 AM here today rather than from a national average. Below are today's five with the time each ends, and then the day's auspicious and inauspicious windows.
