Panchang for Lucknow — 22 December 2025

Shukla Dwitiya tithi, Uttara Ashadha nakshatra · Monday · Uttar Pradesh (26.8467°, 80.9462°)

Dina Shuddhi (day purity): Shuddha (Pure)Vikram Samvat 2082 (Kalayukti)Shaka Samvat 1947Dhanu (Margashirsha)

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 Lucknow (26.8467°, 80.9462°)'s own sunrise — 06:51 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.
