Daily Vedic Panchanga — The Five Limbs of Time
In Vedic astrology, the Panchanga evaluates the energetic quality of any given day through the five astronomical limbs: Tithi (lunar day), Vara (solar day), Nakshatra (lunar mansion), Yoga (angular relationship), and Karana (half-tithi).
1. Tithi (Lunar Phase)
Measures the 12° progressive longitudinal distance between the Moon and Sun, governing psychological and emotional receptivity.
2. Vara (Weekday)
Governed by the 7 classical planets (Sunday: Sun to Saturday: Saturn), determining physical vitality and endurance.
3. Nakshatra (Lunar Mansion)
The specific 13°20′ constellation the Moon is transiting, shaping instinctive mindset and actions.
4. Yoga (Solar-Lunar Sum)
The mathematical addition of Sun and Moon longitudes across 27 divisions, determining relationship harmony and success.
5. Karana (Half Lunar Day)
Half of a Tithi (6° interval), governing practical execution, work accomplishments, and transactional efficacy.
