The Hindu calendar continues to guide millions of devotees in planning their daily rituals, spiritual activities, and important life events. As per the Vedic Panchang, Tuesday, 30 December 2025 marks the Dashami Tithi of the Shukla Paksha in the Paush month. The day comes with significant planetary alignments, auspicious timings, and cautionary periods one should be aware of before initiating any sacred or important tasks.

Tithi, Moon Sign and Nakshatra Today

The Dashami Tithi will remain valid until 2:55 AM on December 31, 2025. After this time, the Ekadashi Tithi will begin. The Moon continues its transit through Capricorn (Makar Rashi), influencing decision-making, practicality, and discipline throughout the day.

The day is associated with the Vishakha Nakshatra, which will prevail until 7:21 AM, followed by another nakshatra shift. Along with this, the auspicious Ayushmaan Yoga will be in effect until 5:59 PM, creating favorable conditions for activities aimed at longevity, health, and well-being.

Understanding the Significance of Panchang

Often referred to as the Vedic Panchang, this ancient Hindu calendar system is a scientific method to calculate time and astrological influence. It is based on five key elements:

• Tithi (Lunar Day)
• Nakshatra (Star Constellation)
• Yoga (Planetary Alignment)
• Karana (Half Tithi)
• Vaar (Day of the Week)

The Panchang also provides crucial guidance about:

✔ Auspicious “Muhurat”
✔ Rahukalam (inauspicious hours)
✔ Sunrise & Sunset timings
✔ Positions of the Sun and Moon
✔ Lunar phases and Hindu month details

For devotees, understanding Panchang ensures that rituals, ceremonies, and new beginnings align with positive cosmic energy.
