Panchang Today, September 29, 2026: Krishan Paksh 3 (Tritiya), Ashwini, Shubh Muhurat, Rahu Kaal and More
Panchang Today is your steady, no-nonsense guide to planning the day with precision, rooted in the spiritual wisdom of the Hindu calendar . From the Moon’s mood to the day’s sensitive hours, it helps you choose your moments with care, not guesswork. Some days feel like a fresh breeze. Others ask for restraint, like a river that looks calm but runs deep. Reading the Panchang keeps you connected to cultural roots, while making mindful decisions in work, family life, travel, and worship. Below are the important Panchang details for September 29, 2026 for India:
Date & Day Details
September 29, 2026 is a Tuesday, and the lunar calendar places us in Krishan Paksh 3 (Tritiya). This Tithi runs till 17:10:18, after which Krishan Paksh 4 (Chaturthi) begins. In Krishna Paksha, the Moon is in its waning phase, so the day naturally supports reflection, clearing pending tasks, and letting go of what’s become heavy. Tritiya, in particular, is about shaping and refining. Think of it as the third step on a staircase, you’ve already started, now you steady your footing. It’s good for correcting course, improving a routine, and doing work that needs a careful hand rather than loud celebration.
The Nakshatra is Ashwini till 09:03:31, and then Bharani takes over. Ashwini is presided over by the Ashwini Kumaras, the divine healers. That shows in the day’s early hours. There’s a get-well soon feeling in the air, not only for the body but also for the mind. It favours starting health habits, seeking guidance, or making quick repairs. After 09:03:31, Bharani arrives, linked with Yama, the keeper of dharma and boundaries. The tone becomes more serious. Bharani pushes you to be responsible and to do the right thing even when it’s inconvenient. So the day begins with speed and remedy, then moves into discipline and consequences. That shift is worth respecting.
The Moon sign is Aries 11.25, bringing a direct, fiery emotional style. People may speak first and think later. You’ll want to finish things fast. Use that energy for action, exercise, and clearing clutter, but watch impatience in family conversations and office chats. The Moon sign transition happens at 30/09/2026 13:13:42, when it moves to Taurus. Even though that’s tomorrow afternoon, you may sense the mind gradually craving stability and comfort as the day closes.
Yoga is Vyaghata till 06:13:16, followed by Harsana. Vyaghata can create friction, like wind hitting a half-open door. Early morning needs calm handling. Harsana then brings a lighter, more cheerful flow, helpful for cooperation. Karan begins with Vanij till 06:13:52 and then Visti till 17:10:18, followed by Bava. Vanij supports trade and practical dealings, Visti is better for routine work and avoiding risky leaps, and Bava steadies the mood for the evening.
Auspicious Timings (Shubh Muhurat)
Auspicious windows today come like patches of sunlight between clouds. If you use them well, the day feels smoother.
Brahma Muhurta is from 2026-09-29 04:12:51 to 2026-09-29 05:01:03. This is the quiet, high purity time, when the mind is less noisy and prayer lands softly. Meditate, chant, read a few pages of scripture, or simply sit with your breath. Even ten minutes will change your mood for the whole day.
Pratah Sandhya runs from 2026-09-29 04:36:57 to 2026-09-29 05:49:15, a fine span for Surya arghya, Gayatri japa, or a short walk that feels like a reset button. After sunrise approaches, Sarvartha Siddhi Yoga is active from 2026-09-29 05:49:15 to 2026-09-29 09:03:27, and at the same time Amrit Siddhi Yoga also runs from 2026-09-29 05:49:15 to 2026-09-29 09:03:27. This is powerful for starting sensible work, sending important emails, launching a study plan, or beginning a disciplined health routine. The cosmic logic is simple, the Ashwini healing current is strong in the morning, and these yogas give it a supportive frame.
Abhijit Muhurta is from 2026-09-29 11:24:19 to 2026-09-29 12:12:11. It’s ideal for decisions that need clarity. File a key application, hold a serious talk with your manager, or begin a task you’ve postponed.
Vijay Muhurta, from 2026-09-29 13:47:55 to 2026-09-29 14:35:47, supports victory through effort. Great for interviews, presentations, or a difficult phone call you can’t avoid.
In the evening, Godhuli Muhurta is from 2026-09-29 17:47:09 to 2026-09-29 18:11:15, and Sayahana Sandhya runs from 2026-09-29 17:47:09 to 2026-09-29 18:59:27. Light a lamp, offer a simple prayer, and bring sweetness into the home. Nishita Muhurta is from 2026-09-29 23:24:33 to 2026-09-30 00:12:45, best kept for quiet sadhana, mantra, or inner work.
Choghadiya also gives helpful cues. During the day, Laabh @ 10:18, Amrit @ 11:47, and Shubh @ 14:47 are supportive for productive moves. At night, Laabh @ 19:17, Shubh @ 22:17, and Amrit @ 23:48 feel favourable for study, planning, and peaceful family time. There’s also Amrit Kalam from 2026-09-30 03:06:03 to 2026-09-30 04:36:11, a sweet stretch for pre-dawn prayer if you’re awake early tomorrow.
Inauspicious Timings
Rahu Kalam today is from 14:47 to 16:17. Rahu is the shadow planet that magnifies confusion, shortcuts, and impulsive choices. During this period, avoid starting new ventures, avoid signing contracts, and don’t make big financial decisions. Keep your wallet closed today, at least during these hours. If you must act, do routine work, reply to messages, or finish what’s already in motion.
Use Rahu Kaal for inner protection instead. Sit for a few minutes, breathe steadily, and chant the Rahu mantra, Om Raam Rahave Namaha. Even a small practice helps, because it turns the mind from restlessness to awareness.
The detailed inauspicious timing for rahu_kaal is 2026-09-29 14:47:40 to 2026-09-29 16:17:24. Yamaganda is from 2026-09-29 08:48:43 to 2026-09-29 10:18:27. This is a time linked with Yama’s stern discipline, so avoid pushing fresh beginnings. Gulika Kaal is listed as gulkai_kaal from 2026-09-29 11:48:12 to 2026-09-29 13:17:56, a stretch best used for routine work and not for risk.
Dur Muhurtam appears twice, from 2026-09-29 08:12:51 to 2026-09-29 09:00:51, and again from 2026-09-29 22:36:21 to 2026-09-29 23:24:21. These are sharp-edged intervals. Avoid confrontations, avoid sending heated messages, and don’t take sensitive relationship decisions then.
Varjyam is from 2026-09-29 18:06:20 to 2026-09-29 19:36:33. Think of Varjyam as a traffic jam for good outcomes. Even sincere efforts can feel blocked. Keep the evening simple during that window.
A few broader cautions also show up. Baana (Agni) runs from 2026-09-29 05:49:15 to 2026-09-29 14:16:15, so avoid careless haste and arguments in the first half. Panchaka runs from 2026-09-29 05:49:15 to 2026-09-30 05:49:39, often treated as a period where one should be extra mindful and avoid unnecessary risk taking. Vidaal Yoga is from 2026-09-29 05:49:15 to 2026-09-29 09:03:27, which can make outcomes feel scattered if you rush.
Choghadiya inauspicious periods are also clear. In the day, Rog @ 05:48, Udveg @ 07:18, Kaal @ 13:17, and Rog @ 16:17 are better kept for basic chores, not big starts. At night, Kaal @ 17:47, Udveg @ 20:47, Rog @ 26:48, and Kaal @ 28:18 suggest keeping emotions steady and avoiding late-night drama.
Rahu Kaal Timings Across India
Rahu Kaal changes across India because it is calculated from local sunrise, and sunrise varies from place to place due to longitude differences. So the same weekday won’t give the same Rahu Kaal everywhere. The table below shows Rahu Kaal for major Indian cities, helping you match this caution period to your own location before planning important actions.
City Rahu Kaal
Mumbai 15:28 - 16:58
Delhi (NCR) 15:10 - 16:40
Bengaluru 15:10 - 16:40
Hyderabad 15:06 - 16:36
Chennai 14:59 - 16:29
Ahmedabad 15:29 - 16:59
Pune 15:24 - 16:54
Kolkata 14:26 - 15:56
Jaipur 15:16 - 16:45
Kochi 15:15 - 16:46

Bhubaneswar 14:36 - 16:06
Sunrise, Sunset, Moonrise & Moonset
Sunrise today is at 05:48:35 and sunset is at 17:47:16. That steady arc of the Sun is the day’s spine. If you begin the morning in a clean way, even a small prayer, a glass of water, a few deep breaths, the whole day tends to sit better on your shoulders. The evening sunset at 17:47:16 is a natural pause point. Wrap up heavy work, lower screen time if you can, and let the mind come home.
Moonrise is at 07:18:57 PM, and moonset is at 09:24:27 AM, Sep 30. With the Moon in Aries, the
night can feel active. Thoughts run quickly, and sleep may come late if the mind keeps replaying conversations. That’s normal today. When the Moon rises, keep the environment softer. Dim lights, light a lamp, and speak gently. The waning Moon of Krishna Paksha also asks for emotional housekeeping. Let go of one grudge. Skip one unnecessary argument. Your inner sky will look clearer by morning.
Vrat/Festival Information & Recommendations
Tritiya Shraddha is observed today, placed in Ashvina, Pitru Paksha (Festival CSV). In the purnimanta month, it is Ashvina, and the amanta month is Bhadrapada, but the spirit of Pitru Paksha remains the same, remembrance, gratitude, and settling what feels unfinished in the family line. Shraddha is not about fear. It’s about respect. A quiet bow to those whose lives made ours possible.
On Tritiya Shraddha, families traditionally perform tarpan and pind daan for ancestors connected to the Tritiya tithi. The idea is simple and moving. You offer water with sincerity, you speak their names if you know them, you feed a cow, a dog, birds, or someone in need, and you keep your conduct clean for the day. Many households also keep food simple, avoid intoxication, and avoid harsh speech. Even if you can’t do full rituals, you can still do something that carries the essence, donate a meal, offer sesame and water, or sit for ten minutes and remember elders with gratitude. That counts. The heart is the main altar.
Because the Moon is in Aries and the Nakshatra shifts from Ashwini to Bharani, today mixes healing with responsibility. In relationships, speak plainly but don’t be blunt. A quick apology can prevent a long silence. If there’s an older family member you’ve been postponing calling, do it before the day runs away. At work, focus on clearing pending tasks and correcting small mistakes. Your boss will notice the person who fixes issues without drama. Avoid taking on a flashy new project during the sensitive hours, especially around Rahu Kaal.
Spiritually, keep it grounded. A lamp in the evening, a short prayer for ancestors, and one act of charity is enough to align with the day’s mood. Then sleep with a lighter mind.
Actionable advice: Start the morning with two quiet pages of prayer or reflection, complete one long-pending task before noon, avoid purchases and major commitments during 14:47 to 16:17, and in the evening offer water and gratitude for your ancestors, then speak one kind sentence at home before dinner.
