The lunar day. 30 phases of the lunar cycle, each with its own qualities and recommendations.
The lunar mansion. 27 constellations with a unique character, deity and recommendations.
The Sun-Moon combination. 27 yogas, from favourable to unfavourable.
Half a tithi. 11 karanas shape the nature of actions in the first and second half of the lunar day.
The day of the week. Each vara is governed by a planet and carries its own favourable activities.
Professional mode
The professional mode additionally computes Chandra Bala and Tara Bala — personal measures of the day's strength based on where your natal Moon stands. It turns a generic calendar into a personal instrument.
The five elements add up to the day's overall favourability percentage — and you can see until what hour each element holds and when the Rahu Kala begins.
This is what the widget looks like in the app: every day of the month has its own percentage. Below — a single day in detail.

For which goal
A generically "good day" is an empty notion: a wedding, a surgery, a move and a property deal all have different criteria. The rating is calculated for a specific goal — there are 23, each with its own demands on the tithi, nakshatra, yoga and vara. The overall score above is only a starting point. Goal-based date search is part of the "Expert" plan.
Search the panchanga by date and city. An instant calculation of all 5 elements, with the exact start and end time of each.
Every day receives a favourability percentage based on the combination of all 5 elements. You can see at once whether to plan anything important.
In the professional mode the system accounts for the position of your natal Moon in rating the day. That is what separates a precise calculation from a generic calendar.
Set the tithis, nakshatras, yogas, karanas and weekdays you need — the system will find the dates where everything coincides, months ahead.
The same day is good in different ways for a wedding, a deal or a course of care. The rating is calculated for a specific goal — 23 of them — not "on average".
Rahu Kala and the other windows the tradition advises to skip, shown with exact times for your city — so you can see precisely when not to start anything important.
Panchanga (Sanskrit for "five parts") is the Vedic calendar describing the five elements of each day: tithi (the lunar day), nakshatra (the lunar mansion), yoga (the Sun-Moon combination), karana (half a tithi) and vara (the weekday).
The panchanga helps choose a favourable time for important undertakings: starting a project, moving house, a purchase, a journey. It shows the day's general "character" and helps act in harmony with natural rhythms.
Rahu Kala is the period of the day governed by Rahu, considered unfavourable for starting anything new. Yama Ghanta is a period associated with Yama, likewise unfavourable. Both are calculated daily and differ for each day of the week.
Yes. The panchanga is calculated for your specific location. The sunrise and sunset times — and therefore all the muhurtas, the Rahu Kala and the horas — are all tied to your coordinates and time zone.
