Panchang Today is your steady daily guide for planning life with a bit more precision, drawn from the spiritual wisdom of the Hindu calendar. It’s not only about “good time, bad time”. It’s about understanding the Moon’s mood, the pull of the nakshatra, and the day’s natural rhythm, so your choices feel calmer and cleaner. When you follow the Panchang, you stay connected to your cultural roots, and you also make mindful decisions about work, travel, family conversations, and prayers. Below are the important Panchang details for May 11, 2026 for India:

Date & Day Details

Date & Day DetailsMay 11, 2026 falls on a Monday, a day ruled by the Moon. That matters because the Moon also sets the emotional tone in the Panchang, so Monday often feels like a mirror. You’ll notice what’s unsettled inside you, and also what’s quietly healing. Today’s Tithi is Krishan Paksh 9 (Navami), running until 15:24:36, after which Krishan Paksh 10 (Dasami) begins. Krishna Paksha itself is the waning phase, when the Moon’s light reduces and the mind naturally turns inward. Navami in the Krishna phase can feel like a strong inner push, a desire to finish what you started, to cut off distractions, and to set a boundary. It’s not the lightest day for flashy beginnings, but it’s excellent for clearing clutter, completing pending tasks, and choosing discipline over impulse.The Nakshatra is Satabhisaj, lasting till 01:28:34, and then P.Bhadrapada takes over. Satabhisaj is linked with the healing current of Varuna, the guardian of cosmic order and inner truth. Think of it like a clean monsoon shower that washes the air. This nakshatra supports research, problem solving, medicine, therapy, detox routines, and honest conversations that remove confusion. If something has been bothering you in a relationship or at work, Satabhisaj encourages you to ask, “What’s the real issue here?” It also favours quiet, focused work over noisy socialising. Once P.Bhadrapada begins after 01:28:34, the vibe becomes deeper, more contemplative, and a bit more intense. Late night thoughts may run strong, so keep your mind anchored.The Moon sign is Aquarius 9.1, and it transitions at 12/05/2026 19:24:43 into Pisces. Aquarius Moon days often make people more logical about emotions, and more willing to think of the bigger picture. You may feel pulled towards group work, community responsibilities, or long-term planning. Still, don’t become too detached. Speak warmly, not like you’re writing a report. After 12/05/2026 19:24:43, Pisces energy softens the edges. Sensitivity rises, sleep can get lighter, and compassion comes forward.Today’s Yoga is Indra till 01:04:17, followed by Vaidhriti. Indra Yoga is associated with strength, initiative, and getting things done, especially when you act with dignity. Vaidhriti is more demanding, it asks for caution, patience, and careful speech. The Karan shows Gara till 15:24:36, then Vanij till 03:14:56. Gara supports steady effort and practical follow-through. Vanij is good for trade, deals, and everyday transactions, provided you don’t rush or get greedy.

Auspicious Timings (Shubh Muhurat)

Auspicious Timings (Shubh Muhurat)Some days give you clear open windows, like a sky that suddenly turns bright after a cloudy morning. Today has several such windows, and if you use them well, the day feels smoother.Brahma Muhurta runs from 2026-05-11 03:49:26 to 2026-05-11 04:32:10. This is the quiet hour when the mind is clean and receptive. If you’ve been postponing prayer, study, or a health routine, this is your best restart point. A short japa, a few pages of reading, or even writing down three intentions can set the tone for the whole Monday.Pratah Sandhya is from 2026-05-11 04:10:48 to 2026-05-11 05:14:54. It’s ideal for Surya arghya, simple breathing practices, and a calm start before the rush begins. Let the morning be gentle. You’ll work better later.Abhijit Muhurta is from 2026-05-11 11:27:46 to 2026-05-11 12:21:02. This is a classic rescue window, good for important calls, meeting a senior, sending a job application, starting a crucial document, or taking a decision that needs clarity. If you can’t avoid a big task today, place it here.Vijay Muhurta runs from 2026-05-11 14:07:34 to 2026-05-11 15:00:50. Use it for competitive matters, interviews, presenting your work, or pushing a stalled project forward. Your boss will notice when you speak with calm confidence.Amrit Kalam is from 2026-05-11 18:04:57 to 2026-05-11 19:43:25. This is a sweet stretch for family time, settling misunderstandings, prayers, and even quiet creative work. It’s also good for polite, heartfelt discussions.Godhuli Muhurta is from 2026-05-11 18:33:33 to 2026-05-11 18:54:55, and Sayahana Sandhya follows from 2026-05-11 18:33:33 to 2026-05-11 19:37:39. These twilight minutes are spiritually sensitive. Lighting a lamp, offering gratitude, and closing the day’s mental clutter fits well here.Nishita Muhurta comes late, from 2026-05-11 23:32:41 to 2026-05-12 00:15:25. It’s powerful for deep prayer, mantra, and inner reset, but keep it simple. Don’t overthink.Choghadiya also gives supportive pockets during the day, Amrit @ 05:15, Shubh @ 08:34, Laabh @ 15:13, and Amrit @ 16:53. At night, Laabh @ 22:33, Shubh @ 25:14, and Amrit @ 26:34 are favourable for peaceful, constructive activities at home.

Inauspicious Timings

Inauspicious TimingsRahu Kalam is the first caution sign today. Rahu Kaal runs from 06:54 to 08:34, and the detailed Panchang window is 2026-05-11 06:54:43 to 2026-05-11 08:34:33. Rahu is the planet of smoke and illusion. During this time, avoid starting new ventures, signing contracts, making big financial commitments, or buying expensive items. Keep your wallet closed today in that window. What can you do instead? Simple steady work, cleaning tasks, meditation, and chanting are ideal. If you like a direct remedy, repeat “Om Raam Rahave Namaha” with a calm mind.Yamaganda is from 2026-05-11 10:14:23 to 2026-05-11 11:54:13. This period often brings irritation, delays, or unnecessary arguments if you push too hard. If you must travel or attend a meeting then, leave extra buffer time and keep your language polite. Gulika Kaal, written as gulkai_kaal here, is from 2026-05-11 13:34:03 to 2026-05-11 15:13:53. Avoid launching new work and avoid confrontations. Do routine tasks. Pay bills. Finish what’s already open.Varjyam, from 2026-05-11 08:18:59 to 2026-05-11 09:53:02, is another sensitive patch. It’s best used for low-risk activities. Don’t insist on your way during Varjyam. Let things breathe.Dur Muhurtam appears twice, from 2026-05-11 12:21:02 to 2026-05-11 13:14:02, and again from 2026-05-11 15:00:50 to 2026-05-11 15:53:50. These are not ideal for important commitments, proposals, or legal steps. If a meeting is unavoidable, keep it short and factual.There is also baana (Roga) from 2026-05-11 05:14:54 to 2026-05-12 03:48:54, and panchaka from 2026-05-11 05:14:54 to 2026-05-12 05:14:20. These signals ask for extra care around health routines, travel planning, and avoidable risks. Eat on time. Don’t skip water. Small things matter.Aadal Yoga is marked from 2026-05-11 05:14:54 to 2026-05-11 19:31:03, with aadal_yoga_detailed again from 2026-05-11 05:14:54 to 2026-05-11 19:31:03, and aadal_yoga_detailed from 2026-05-12 01:29:03 to 2026-05-12 05:14:20. Vidaal Yoga is listed as 2026-05-12 01:29:03 to 2026-05-11 19:31:03, and vidaal_yoga_detailed repeats the same. Treat these as caution markers, meaning you should avoid reckless decisions, avoid harsh words, and keep plans realistic.Choghadiya also shows inauspicious periods, Kaal @ 06:54, Rog @ 10:14, and Udveg @ 11:54 during the day. At night, Rog @ 19:53, Kaal @ 21:13, and Udveg @ 23:53 are better kept for rest, prayer, or quiet household routines, not for big announcements.

Rahu Kaal Timings Across India

Rahu Kaal Timings Across IndiaRahu Kaal changes with geographic location across India because it is calculated from local sunrise time, and sunrise differs from place to place due to longitude variations. That’s why the same weekday can show slightly different Rahu Kaal windows across regions. The table below shows Rahu Kaal for major Indian cities, so you can follow the timing that matches your location.

Sunrise, Sunset, Moonrise & Moonset

Sunrise, Sunset, Moonrise & MoonsetSunrise today is at 05:15:15, and sunset is at 18:33:12. Sunrise is the day’s first spiritual door, a reminder that effort becomes easier when you begin on time. If you’ve been feeling mentally heavy, step outside for a minute after 05:15:15. Let your eyes adjust to the light. It steadies the nervous system more than we admit.Sunset at 18:33:12 is equally important. It’s the natural point to slow down, close pending loops, and return to family and inner life. If you carry office stress into the evening, it will follow you into sleep. Better to set it down at dusk.Moonrise is at 01:48:36 AM, May 12, and Moonset is at 01:04:04 PM. With the Moon rising after midnight, the early night may feel a bit flat or restless, and then thoughts can become active in the late hours. The Moon setting at 01:04:04 PM suggests the emotional tide drops after midday. So if you need to have a sensitive conversation, morning may be too reactive. Choose a calmer window and speak with warmth.Follow the day like a river, active in the morning, steady in the afternoon, softer after sunset. Your body will cooperate when your schedule respects the sky.

Vrat/Festival Information & Recommendations

Vrat/Festival Information & RecommendationsNo major Vrat or festival is observed today.That doesn’t make the day ordinary. In the Hindu month context, today falls in Vaishakha (amanta) and Jyeshtha (purnimanta), a seasonal corridor where heat rises and patience gets tested. The Panchang today asks for restraint and clean routines, especially because Krishna Paksha Navami supports closure and discipline. Satabhisaj adds a healing, truth-seeking flavour. So what do you do with it? You keep life simple and purposeful.On relationships, don’t try to win arguments. Try to understand what’s underneath. Aquarius Moon can make you sound detached, even when you care. A small check-in message, a cup of tea with elders, or asking your partner, “How was your day really?” can soften the whole atmosphere. If someone’s being stubborn, give them space. Monday emotions need breathing room.On career and work, aim for steady output, not drama. Use Abhijit Muhurta from 2026-05-11 11:27:46 to 2026-05-11 12:21:02 to send that important mail, finalise a report, or speak to a senior with clarity. Use Vijay Muhurta from 2026-05-11 14:07:34 to 2026-05-11 15:00:50 for a strong presentation or to push a pending approval. During Rahu Kaal 06:54 to 08:34, avoid signing anything new. Postpone big purchases. If you’re commuting, leave a little early so you’re not rushing during the edgy hours.For spiritual practice, keep it grounded. A short morning prayer during Pratah Sandhya from 2026-05-11 04:10:48 to 2026-05-11 05:14:54, and a lamp at twilight during Godhuli Muhurta from 2026-05-11 18:33:33 to 2026-05-11 18:54:55 is enough. If your mind feels busy at night, sit for five minutes during Nishita Muhurta from 2026-05-11 23:32:41 to 2026-05-12 00:15:25 and do slow breathing, then stop. Don’t overdo rituals. Sincerity beats show.A final thought for the day. Like a tree conserving water in summer, conserve your energy. Choose one important task, one honest conversation, and one quiet spiritual act. Keep your wallet closed during Rahu Kaal, speak gently during Yamaganda, and end the evening by writing down tomorrow’s top three priorities before sleep.
