Jaipur, 9 October 2026: Friday’s traditional Hindu almanac places Krishna Paksha Chaturdashi, the fourteenth lunar day of the waning fortnight, across most of the day. In Jaipur, multiple location-specific calendars say the tithi changes to Amavasya at approximately 9:36 p.m. IST. The calendar information helps readers understand the observance; it is not a forecast of personal events.
Key points
- Jaipur’s October 9 Panchang marks Krishna Chaturdashi, with Amavasya beginning late Friday evening.
- Local almanacs place Uttara Phalguni nakshatra into the evening, while sunrise-based calculations can vary by location and method.
- These traditional timings guide cultural observances; they do not scientifically predict a person’s luck, health or financial outcomes.
What the Jaipur calendar shows
For Jaipur, the Dev Panchang calendar dated 9 October lists Chaturdashi until 9:36 p.m. and Uttara Phalguni until about 9:19 p.m. It gives sunrise as 6:23 a.m. and sunset as 6:04 p.m., with minor rounding differences possible across sources. BhaktiBharat’s Jaipur calendar likewise lists the day’s tithi and nakshatra, though some other calculated elements differ among providers.
A panchang traditionally brings together five elements: tithi (lunar day), vara (weekday), nakshatra (the Moon’s position in a traditional 27-part sky division), yoga and karana. Families may use it to plan prayers or remember cultural observances. The label of an observance can depend on whether a tradition follows the tithi at sunrise, its evening timing or a separate religious rule.
Why it matters
Readers looking up ancestral remembrance or festival calendars should check their own city, not simply copy a timetable published for Delhi, Jaipur or another location. Sunrise and derived intervals vary geographically. A household also may follow a local priest, family custom or regional calendar for the appropriate ritual day. Check the relevant observance rather than treating a tithi’s clock-time change as a universal instruction.
These calculations have an astronomical basis in positions of the Sun and Moon, while traditional claims that particular timings bring good or bad fortune are matters of belief, not scientifically demonstrated predictions. Readers should not use astrology to substitute for medical, financial or safety decisions.
