Panchang Today, November 15, 2026: Shukla Paksh 6 (Shashthi), U.Asadha, Shubh Muhurat, Rahu Kaal and More
Panchang Today is your day’s clean compass, drawn from the Hindu calendar’s steady mathematics of the Sun, Moon, and stars. It helps you plan with precision, not just for prayer, but also for practical choices like travel, meetings, shopping, and family commitments. Aaj Ka Panchang also keeps you close to cultural roots, because time in our tradition isn’t just clock time, it’s living rhythm. When you align your actions with the tithi, nakshatra, and yogas, the day feels less scattered. You act with intention. Below are the important Panchang details for November 15, 2026 for India:
Date & Day DetailsNovember 15, 2026 falls on a Sunday, a Surya day. That solar flavour matters today because the festival energy also leans towards Surya worship, and the sky feels bright in intention even if your personal mood is a little serious.
The tithi running is Shukla Paksh 6 (Shashthi), and it ends at 02:01:14, after which Shukla Paksh 7 (Saptami) begins. Shukla Shashthi is a growing Moon phase, like a sapling that has settled into the soil and now wants steady care. It supports preparation, discipline, and structured effort. Think of tasks that need routine more than drama, like organising documents, setting a study plan, starting a fitness habit, or putting a household system in place. Because this tithi matures into Saptami after 02:01:14, the late night carries a “tomorrow is near” feeling. Finish what you’ve started, keep notes ready, and don’t leave loose ends for morning.
The nakshatra is U.Asadha , ending at 23:28:55, and then Sravana takes over. U.Asadha is traditionally linked with Vishwadevas, the universal deities, and its nature is about victory through right effort. It rewards integrity. Not shortcuts. Work done under U.Asadha tends to hold its ground, like a strong tree that doesn’t bend at the first wind. It favours commitments, formal discussions, disciplined study, and any act where you want long term respect. As the day moves towards Sravana after 23:28:55, the mood becomes more listening based. Good for reflection, learning, and receiving guidance.
The Moon sign remains Capricorn 1.30 today, with the next shift shown at 17/11/2026 15:30:32 into Aquarius. Capricorn Moon makes people practical, slightly reserved, and more focused on duty. You may not feel like chatting for the sake of it. You’ll want results. Use that. Pay bills on time, review work targets, and set boundaries at home without becoming cold.
Yoga is Shula until 06:22:48, then Ganda begins. Shula can feel sharp, like thorns on a stem. It asks you to act carefully, speak thoughtfully, and avoid ego clashes. Karan supports the flow too, with Kaulava until 12:44:12 and Taitila until 02:01:14. These karans generally help steady effort, planning, and tasks that need patience rather than speed.
Auspicious Timings (Shubh Muhurat)A good day is not only about what you do, it’s also about when you do it. Shubh Muhurat windows are like clear weather breaks, short but useful if you step out at the right moment.
Brahma Muhurta runs from 04:30:07 to 05:22:31. This is the calm before the mind wakes up fully. It’s ideal for japa, pranayama, quiet reading, or simply sitting with a diya and a clean intention for the day. Pratah Sandhya from 04:56:19 to 06:14:55 supports morning prayers, Surya arghya, and setting your inner rhythm. If you’ve been feeling scattered, start here.
Abhijit Muhurta is from 11:20:35 to 12:04:15. Use it for important calls, submitting forms, signing off on a decision you’ve already thought through, or making a respectful request to elders or seniors. Vijay Muhurta from 13:31:35 to 14:15:15 is best for actions that need courage, like presenting your work, dealing with a tricky conversation, or pushing a stalled task forward.
The evening brings Godhuli Muhurta from 17:09:55 to 17:36:07, along with Sayahana Sandhya from 17:09:55 to 18:28:31. The sky changes colour, and so does the mind. This is a beautiful time for lamp lighting, gratitude, and family togetherness. Nishita Muhurta arrives late, from 23:16:43 to 00:09:07, supportive for deep prayer, quiet vows, and mantra sadhana.
Today also carries long supportive stretches: Sarvartha Siddhi Yoga from 06:14:55 to 23:28:32, Siddha Yoga from 06:14:55 to 02:01:32, Tri Pushkara Yoga from 02:02:32 to 23:28:32, and Ravi Yoga from 06:14:55 to 23:28:32. These combinations are traditionally seen as giving smoother outcomes for sincere work. Amrit Kalam from 16:15:44 to 18:03:56 is especially good for prayer, healing intentions, and acts of kindness.
From the Choghadiya context, the day shows auspicious pockets like Laabh @ 08:58, Amrit @ 10:20, and Shubh @ 13:04. Night brings Shubh @ 17:10 and Amrit @ 18:48, which suits evening worship and family rituals.
Inauspicious Timings Rahu Kaal today is from 15:48 to 17:10. Rahu Kaal is a period linked with Rahu’s restless, smoky influence, where clarity can reduce and impatience can rise. It doesn’t mean you freeze your life. It means you avoid launching new ventures, signing contracts, making big purchases, or taking risky financial calls. Keep your wallet closed today during this window, and don’t promise more than you can deliver.
What can you do in Rahu Kaal? Sit for five minutes of breathing, chant the Rahu mantra “Om Raam Rahave Namaha”, or do routine work that doesn’t involve fresh beginnings. Cleaning, filing, replying to non critical messages, or finishing pending tasks fits well.
Other inauspicious timings also deserve attention. Yamaganda runs from 11:42:25 to 13:04:17, another phase best kept for regular duties, not new starts. Gulkai Kaal is from 14:26:10 to 15:48:02, and it often brings small obstacles if you push forcefully. Two Dur Muhurtam periods appear, from 06:58:35 to 07:42:35 and again from 15:42:35 to 16:26:35. If you can, avoid high stakes meetings, confrontations, and important submissions in these slices.
Varjyam is from 03:58:40 to 05:46:19. It’s an awkward patch where efforts can feel blocked, so it’s better for rest, quiet prayer, or simple routine. Baana (Mrityu) runs from 06:14:55 to 19:53:55, and Baana (Agni) from 19:53:55 to 06:15:38. Treat these as reminders to stay alert, avoid careless driving, and keep temper and haste under control.
There is also Mrityu Yoga from 23:24:55 to 06:13:55, plus Vidaal Yoga from 06:14:55 to 23:28:32 and Aadal Yoga from 23:29:32 to 06:15:38, with the same detailed repeats. These indicators suggest you should keep decisions clean and avoid impulsive actions late night. Sleep on it, if you’re unsure.
Choghadiya inauspicious periods include Udveg @ 06:15, Kaal @ 11:42, Rog @ 14:26, and Udveg @ 15:48 in the day, and Rog @ 22:04, Kaal @ 23:43, Udveg @ 26:59 at night. If something can wait, let it wait.
Rahu Kaal Timings Across IndiaRahu Kaal changes across India because it is calculated from local sunrise, and sunrise is not identical everywhere. Longitudes differ, so the same day carries slightly different Rahu Kaal slots from place to place. That’s why families in different parts of India may follow a different window even on the same date. The table below shows Rahu Kaal for major Indian cities, calculated as per their local sunrise times.
Sunrise, Sunset, Moonrise & MoonsetSunrise today is at 06:15:10 and sunset is at 17:10:29. These two moments are more than entries on a clock. Sunrise is a daily reopening, like a fresh page where you can rewrite your tone. If you can spare even a minute, face the morning light, offer water, and set one simple sankalp, something you can actually keep.
Sunset at 17:10:29 asks you to slow down. Wrap up noisy tasks. Speak softer at home. In Kartika, evenings often feel devotional by nature, and the mind responds well to diya lighting and a brief prayer.
Moonrise is at 11:06:36 AM and moonset is at 10:04:41 PM. The Moon rising late morning suits steady emotional pacing. You may feel more focused after midday, less distracted by other people’s opinions. Moonset at 10:04:41 PM suggests the night is better used for quiet closure than endless scrolling. Close the loop on the day. A short reflection, a glass of warm water, and a calm mind will do more than a late argument ever can.
Vrat/Festival Information & RecommendationsSandhya Arghya, Chhath Puja is observed today, in the Hindu month of Kartika. This is not a casual ritual. It’s one of the most disciplined and heartfelt festivals of Surya worship, where devotion is offered with purity, restraint, and gratitude for life’s everyday gifts, health, food, and family strength.
Sandhya Arghya means the evening offering to the setting Sun. Why the setting Sun, you might ask, when so many prayers focus on sunrise? Because the tradition honours both. The Sun that gives, and the Sun that withdraws. It teaches balance. In many homes, devotees prepare a clean space, keep the mind steady, and offer arghya with water while remembering Surya Narayan, along with reverence for Usha and Pratyusha, the energies of dawn and dusk. The heart of Chhath is simple, discipline with faith. You don’t need noise. You need sincerity.
Since today’s tithi is Shukla Paksh 6 (Shashthi) and the nakshatra U.Asadha carries a victory through righteousness tone, the day supports vows kept with dignity. The festival also benefits from the evening devotional windows already present, especially Godhuli Muhurta from 17:09:55 to 17:36:07 and Sayahana Sandhya from 17:09:55 to 18:28:31. Keep the surroundings clean. Keep speech clean too. It counts.
On the personal front, Capricorn Moon can make people strict with themselves and others. Soften your words with family, even if you’re tired. At work, take the steady route. Do what’s promised, avoid shortcuts, and your boss will notice. Money wise, don’t mix devotion with showy spending. Offer what you can, and keep the rest for practical needs.
End the day with a small, doable routine. Light a diya at home in the evening, offer a glass of water to the Sun with gratitude, and write down one task you will finish tomorrow. Then stop. Eat simply, speak kindly, and sleep on time. Your best advice for today is this, stay disciplined in the morning, stay gentle in the evening, and keep your next step clear before you take it.
