About Telugu Panchangam & Vedic Astrology

Telugu Panchangam Daily is a free Vedic Hindu calendar utility that dynamically calculates the traditional Panchangam for any location across the globe. Using the VSOP87 planetary model (a well-tested, open-source astronomical framework), it computes Panchangam parameters for your selected city. Timings are computed for reference; always consult a qualified Pandit for important decisions.

All calculations apply the Chitrapaksha (Lahiri) Ayanamsa, the standard sidereal correction officially recognized by the Indian Government's Calendar Reform Committee. This follows the standard sidereal framework used in traditional Telugu Panchangam publications for the 27 Nakshatras and 30 Tithis.

Key Panchangam Elements

Tithi (Lunar Phase) — The angular separation between Moon and Sun in 12-degree increments, divided into Shukla Paksha (bright fortnight, Tithis 1-15) and Krishna Paksha (dark fortnight, Tithis 1-15).

Nakshatra (Lunar Mansion) — The segment of the sidereal zodiac occupied by the Moon. The 27 Nakshatras from Ashwini to Revati define stellar energy patterns for each day.

Yogam — Derived from the combined sidereal longitude of the Sun and Moon, divided into 27 segments of 13°20' each.

Karanam — Half of a Tithi (6-degree increments), yielding 60 Karanas across one lunar month.

Auspicious Timings — Abhijit Muhurtham, Brahma Muhurtham, and Amritha Kalam (Amrutha Gadiyalu) calculated from local sunrise and sunset.

Inauspicious Periods — Rahu Kalam today, Yamagandam today, Durmuhurtham (also called Dhur Muhurtham), and Varjyam today — all derived from day-of-week sunrise divisions and planetary longitudes.

All Panchangam calculations run locally in your browser — no server-side computation is used for the astronomical data. The page loads fonts and advertising scripts from external servers, but the Panchangam computations themselves are entirely client-side. Whether you need today's Tithi for rituals, today's Nakshatram for matching, or Rahu Kalam today for scheduling, Telugu Panchangam Daily provides real-time calculations for Telugu communities in India, USA, Canada, UK, Middle East, Australia, and Asia.

Calculation Basis: Drik Ganita (modern astronomical) using Lahiri Ayanamsa. Tithi and Nakshatra shown are those active at local sunrise. Values may differ from Surya Siddhanta-based traditional Panchangam publications. Read full methodology & disclaimer →

Telugu Panchangam for San Jose

San Jose and the broader Silicon Valley region host the largest concentration of Telugu professionals in the United States. The Bay Area's Telugu community, spanning San Jose, Fremont, Sunnyvale, and Santa Clara, has built a vibrant cultural ecosystem with temples, language schools, and Panchangam-guided religious practices.

Pacific Time zone Telugu families in Silicon Valley face a 13.5-hour offset from IST, meaning many Tithis and Nakshatras that begin in the evening in India start in the early morning hours locally. This makes city-specific Panchangam calculations critical — a festival observed on one date in India may need to be observed on the previous or next day in California.

Sunrise, Daylight & Panchangam Timings in San Jose

San Jose lies at latitude 37.3°N. Across 2026, sunrise in San Jose ranges from about 5:46 AM at its earliest (around Jun) to roughly 7:32 AM at its latest (around Nov). The longest day lasts about 14.7 hours near Jun, shrinking to roughly 9.6 hours around Dec.

Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam, Gulika Kalam and the daily Muhurthams are each measured as fixed fractions of the time between local sunrise and sunset. Because that span changes through the year in San Jose, these windows shift too — and they differ from every city in India. That is why this page recomputes the full Panchangam for San Jose’s own coordinates and timezone each day, instead of reusing timings calculated for another location.

San Jose keeps US Pacific Time (PT, UTC−8) (with daylight-saving time in the warmer months), which places it about 13 hours 30 minutes behind India (IST). A Tithi or Nakshatram that rules a given clock hour in India therefore begins at a shifted local time in San Jose, so the Panchangam here cannot simply copy Indian timings. This page recomputes sunrise, sunset, Tithi, Nakshatram, Rahu Kalam and every Muhurtham from San Jose’s own coordinates (37.34°N, 121.89°W), adjusting automatically for daylight-saving time, so each value is correct for San Jose rather than for India.

Common Questions — Panchangam in San Jose

What time is sunrise in San Jose?
Sunrise in San Jose is not fixed — it varies from about 5:46 AM at its earliest (around Jun) to roughly 7:32 AM at its latest (around Nov). This page computes sunrise daily for San Jose’s coordinates (37.3°N), so the Tithi, Nakshatram, Rahu Kalam and Muhurtham windows always reflect the real local day.

Why does San Jose’s Rahu Kalam differ from the Panchangam my family uses in India?
Rahu Kalam is one-eighth of the daytime, measured from local sunrise to sunset. San Jose runs about 12.5 hours behind India and sits at latitude 37.3°N, so its sunrise and day length are different — which means the eight Rahu Kalam slots land at different clock times. A Panchangam printed for Hyderabad or Vijayawada will not line up with San Jose.

Can Telugu festival dates differ in San Jose?
Yes, sometimes. Festivals are fixed by the Tithi at local sunrise (or moonrise/midday for some). Because San Jose is about 12.5 hours behind India, a Tithi can begin or end on a different local date — so festivals such as Deepavali or Vinayaka Chavithi occasionally fall a day earlier or later than in India. Each festival date on this page is computed for San Jose’s own timezone.
