पञ्चाङ्ग
Panchang
Every day carries a tithi, a nakshatra and a temperament. This is the reckoning the pandits keep — printed here in full, so you can choose the day before you choose the pooja.

Five limbs of a day
A panchang is not a calendar of dates but a description of days. Each limb is a different measurement of the same sky, and a muhurat is chosen where they agree.
Tithiतिथि
The lunar day — the moon's elongation from the sun, in twelve-degree steps.
Varaवार
The weekday, reckoned sunrise to sunrise rather than midnight to midnight.
Nakshatraनक्षत्र
The lunar mansion the moon occupies; twenty-seven divisions of the ecliptic.
Yogaयोग
The sum of the solar and lunar longitudes, in twenty-seven parts.
Karanaकरण
Half a tithi. Eleven karanas turn through the lunar month.

Tithis are computed from the true positions of the sun and moon for Varanasi (Kashi) and evaluated at local noon, so a day is labelled by the tithi that governs most of its daylight. Regional panchangs reckoned from sunrise may differ by one tithi near a transition; for a binding muhurat, confirm with your aacharya.
