About Janma

What Janma is, how its panchang and festival dates are calculated, and how to use it.

Janma is a free Hindu calendar and panchang that works out every value in your browser. Sunrise, sunset, tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana, muhurat windows, festival dates and planet positions are calculated from the open-source astronomy-engine library for the city and date you choose. Nothing is copied from printed almanacs.
Festival rules are written as tithi, nakshatra or solar-month conditions and checked against the computed panchang, so dates follow your city and its time zone. Where traditions differ, the page says so and shows the rule used.
Janma is a reference tool, not religious advice. For a vow, a ceremony or a life decision, please confirm the timing with a family priest or a trusted local calendar.
