Panchang for New York — 23 September 2026

Shukla Dwadashi tithi, Dhanishtha nakshatra · Wednesday · NY (40.7128°, -74.006°)

Dina Shuddhi (day purity): Partial (3/4)Vikram Samvat 2083 (Siddharthi)Shaka Samvat 1948Kanya (Bhadrapada)

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 New York (40.7128°, -74.006°)'s own sunrise — 06:44 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.
