Today's Tithi in Rancho Cordova
The tithi on 14 June 2026 is Krishna Paksha Amavasya. A tithi is one lunar day — the time the Moon takes to move 12° further from the Sun — and it governs which observances, fasts and ceremonies suit the day. End times on this page are converted to Rancho Cordova local time (America/Los Angeles).
Today's Nakshatra in Rancho Cordova
The Moon is in Rohini nakshatra. The zodiac is divided into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′ each; the one the Moon occupies colours the day's character and matters for naming ceremonies, travel decisions and muhurat selection in Rancho Cordova.
Today's Yoga in Rancho Cordova
Today's yoga is Shula. Yoga is computed from the combined longitudes of the Sun and Moon and cycles through 27 names; some yogas are read as favourable for new undertakings while others counsel routine work.
Today's Karana in Rancho Cordova
The prevailing karana is Chatushpada. A karana is half a tithi — there are two in every lunar day — and it is consulted for fine-grained timing of work begun within the day.
Sunrise and Sunset in Rancho Cordova
On 14 June 2026 the sun rises in Rancho Cordova at 5:40 AM and sets at 8:31 PM. Sunrise is the hinge of the whole panchang: the Hindu day begins at local sunrise, and Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika and the choghadiya sequence are all equal divisions of the daylight between these two moments.
About Panchang in Rancho Cordova
A panchang is the traditional Hindu almanac that maps each day through five limbs — tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (the constellation the Moon occupies), yoga, karana and vara (weekday). This page carries the complete panchang for Rancho Cordova, California for 14 June 2026: today the Krishna Paksha Amavasya tithi prevails with the Moon in Rohini nakshatra, and every muhurat and kaal window below is worked out for Rancho Cordova's own sky rather than copied from an Indian city's almanac.
Why does the city matter so much? Because nearly everything in a panchang is anchored to local sunrise. Rancho Cordova lies at 38.59°N, 121.30°W and keeps America/Los Angeles time, so its days begin and end at different moments than any Indian city's. On 14 June 2026 the sun rises over Rancho Cordova at 5:40 AM and sets at 8:31 PM — figures no Indian city shares — and Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika, the eight choghadiya periods and Abhijit Muhurat are all fractions of that local daylight. Reading an India-time panchang in Rancho Cordova would put every one of those windows at the wrong local hour — and across a timezone gap, even the tithi in force on a given date can change.
How these timings are calculated: planetary longitudes come from the Swiss Ephemeris, the same high-precision library used by professional astrology software, with the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa — the sidereal reference adopted by India's official Rashtriya Panchang. Tithi changes when the Moon moves 12° ahead of the Sun; nakshatra changes as the Moon crosses each 13°20′ arc of the zodiac. These transition moments are universal, and we convert each one into America/Los Angeles local time, then derive sunrise-dependent windows from Rancho Cordova's own horizon. The full method is documented on our methodology page.
If you live in Rancho Cordova or elsewhere in California, use this page the way a family priest would: check the tithi and nakshatra first, then choose your hour. Abhijit Muhurat (12:35 PM – 1:35 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (6:39 PM – 8:31 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above divide Sunday's daylight and night into auspicious and inauspicious spells — every figure already in Rancho Cordova local time, with no conversion from IST required.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a panchang?
A panchang is the Hindu almanac that describes each day through five limbs — tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (the Moon's constellation), yoga, karana and vara (weekday) — and from them derives the day's auspicious (muhurat) and inauspicious (Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda) periods. This page computes all of them for Rancho Cordova, United States.
How is Rahu Kalam calculated in Rancho Cordova?
The daylight between Rancho Cordova's local sunrise and sunset is divided into eight equal parts, and one fixed part belongs to Rahu depending on the weekday (for example the 8th part on Sunday, the 2nd on Monday). Because Rancho Cordova's sunrise and day length differ from India's, its Rahu Kalam falls at different clock times than in Indian cities.
What time is Rahu Kalam in Rancho Cordova today?
Rahu Kalam in Rancho Cordova today (14 June 2026) is from 6:39 PM – 8:31 PM California local time. It is computed from Rancho Cordova's own sunrise and sunset — not India's — so it differs from Rahu Kalam in Indian cities.
What is the tithi today in Rancho Cordova?
The tithi is Krishna Paksha Amavasya, until 7:54 PM local time. Tithi end times are converted to Rancho Cordova's timezone (America/Los Angeles).
Why is the panchang for Rancho Cordova different from India?
All panchang timings depend on local sunrise and sunset. Rancho Cordova (38.59°, -121.30°) has different sun times than India, so Rahu Kalam, choghadiya and muhurat windows shift — and because of the time difference, even the tithi prevailing on your calendar date can differ from India's. This page is computed specifically for Rancho Cordova.
What is the shubh muhurat in Rancho Cordova today?
Abhijit Muhurat, the most auspicious window of the day, is 12:35 PM – 1:35 PM local time in Rancho Cordova.
