Panchak, Bhadra and special yogas

Panchak Present

19:08:05 (5 days earlier) to 17:27:22
Moon in Kumbha/Meena (Dhanishta 3rd pada to Revati)
traditional type: Mrityu Panchak (began on Saturday)

The Panchak interval is an astronomical fact (Moon's position). Restrictions associated with it — such as avoiding southward travel, roofing, wood-gathering or certain funeral rites without remedies — are traditional and vary between communities. Learn more

Bhadra (Vishti karana) Present

15:15:49 to 03:20:16 (next day)
Residence: Bhumi (earth); changes to Swarga (heaven) from 17:27

Bhadra is the Vishti karana (a calculated half-tithi). Many traditions avoid auspicious beginnings during Bhadra, especially when it resides on earth (Moon in Karka, Simha, Kumbha or Meena); some permit activities when it resides in Swarga or Patala. Learn more
