Frequently asked questions about Telugu Panchangam
Which era and months does it use?
Shalivahana Shaka with Amanta months, the year beginning at Ugadi on Chaitra Shukla Pratipada. Each day carries its tithi, nakshatra and any festival.
What is the panchanga sravanam at Ugadi?
The public reading of the new almanac on Ugadi morning - the samvatsara name from the sixty-year Jovian cycle, the year\'s rainfall and harvest prospects, and a forecast for each rashi. It is why the printed panchangam is bought before Ugadi.
Which days does a Telugu household look for?
Ugadi, Sri Rama Navami, Varalakshmi Vratam on a Shravana Friday, Vinayaka Chaviti, Atla Tadde, Bathukamma and Bonalu in Telangana, Karthika Somavaram and the three days of Sankranti. The Telugu calendar lists them by month.
Why does a date differ from a north Indian almanac?
Because of the Amanta and Purnimanta split - the dark fortnight carries a different month name in the north - and occasionally because a tithi spanning two days is assigned differently. The tithi itself is the same.
Does it show Varjyam and Durmuhurtam?
Not in the yearly listing, which carries tithi, nakshatra and festivals. For Varjyam, Durmuhurtam, Rahu Kalam and the day\'s shubh windows, open the daily Panchang and set your city.
About the Telugu Panchangam
The Telugu Panchangam (Shalivahana Shaka, Ugadi new year). Each day shows its tithi, nakshatra and festivals, with the Shaka year and the Amanta month.
Each day lists its tithi and paksha, the nakshatra, the weekday (vaar) and any festivals or vrats. Tap any day to see the full panchang for that date - tithi start and end times, nakshatra, yoga, karana, sunrise and sunset, and the inauspicious periods (Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika Kalam). Use the month and year selectors to browse any year in the archive or plan ahead into the coming years.
This calendar names the tithi and festivals for each day. For sunrise, Rahu Kalam and muhurat windows on a chosen date, open the Panchang. Other regional calendars are on the Calendars index. Fast stories live under Vrat Katha.
