Panchang for Monday, February 12, 2024

Panchang is the Hindu calendar and almanac, derived from Sanskrit — "Panch" (five) + "Ang" (limbs). It tracks five essential elements: Tithi (lunar day), Nakshatra (constellation), Yoga (auspicious combination), Karana (half of Tithi), and Var (weekday).

Checking daily Panchang helps find Shubh Muhurat (auspicious timings) for important events like marriages, Griha Pravesh, business openings, and religious ceremonies. It also reveals inauspicious timings like Rahu Kaal, Guli Kaal, and Yamghant Kaal that should be avoided for new ventures.
