In the Sanatan Hindu tradition, consulting the Panchang (almanac) before starting any new or auspicious work is a deeply rooted practice. The Panchang provides precise information about the day’s favorable and unfavorable timings, planetary positions, and lunar days (Tithis). Today is Saturday, June 06, 2026. According to the Hindu calendar, it is the Shashthi Tithi of the Krishna Paksha in the month of Jyeshtha. We are currently in Vikram Samvat 2083 (Siddharthi) and Shaka Samvat 1948 (Parabhava).

Astrological Tip of the Day: Saturday is dedicated to Lord Shani (Saturn), the deity of justice and karma. Reciting the Shani Chalisa or Hanuman Chalisa, or donating mustard oil to the needy today, will attract positivity and remove obstacles from your life. If traveling East is absolutely unavoidable, consume ginger or Urad dal before leaving the house.
