Panchang for Edison: what is different here

Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga and Karana are shown as they stand at sunrise in Edison, the traditional rule for the day's Panchang. Times use Eastern Daylight Time (UTC−4), 9 h 30 min behind India. Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda and Gulika are each one eighth of the time from sunrise to sunset, so their length changes through the seasons.

Upcoming vrat and festival dates in Edison

Start and end times are in Edison time. A vrat is usually kept on the day the Tithi is running at sunrise; your family or temple tradition may differ.

Edison by the numbers

Daylight in Edison today lasts 10 h 31 min. Over the year it ranges from about 9 h 17 min to 15 h 4 min, so Rahu Kaal here is anywhere from 70 to 113 minutes long, and every daytime Muhurat stretches and shrinks with the seasons.

Sunrise in Edison today is 7:25 AM, 1 minutes later on the clock than in New York (41 km away). Even nearby cities need their own Panchang.

On 30 October the sunrise Tithi in Edison is Krishna Panchami; in Delhi it is Krishna Panchami. They match today, but on many days they do not, especially around Ekadashi and Purnima, so check before a vrat.

Time in Edison and why it matters

Edison is on Eastern Daylight Time (UTC−4), 9 h 30 min behind India.

Edison uses daylight saving time, so the gap to India changes during the year:

If you were born in Edison, enter your birth time exactly as it is written on your birth certificate. That is the local clock time, already including summer time if it applied, and the birthplace tells the calculation which time zone to use.

Vedic traditions in Edison

Edison and Iselin's Oak Tree Road is one of America's best-known Indian neighbourhoods, and the BAPS Swaminarayan Akshardham in nearby Robbinsville is one of the largest Hindu temples outside India. Central New Jersey families often need Muhurat and Kundli matching for weddings held both here and in India.

Questions from Edison

Which ayanamsa does this Panchang use?

The Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa, the standard used by the Indian government's Rashtriya Panchang and most printed Panchangs.

What is the Rahu Kaal time in Edison today?

Today in Edison Rahu Kaal is 11:22 AM – 12:41 PM. It is worked out from Edison's own sunrise and sunset, so it is different from the time in an Indian calendar.

Why is the Tithi in Edison sometimes different from an Indian calendar?

A Tithi begins at the same moment everywhere, but the local clock and sunrise differ. The day's Tithi is the one running at local sunrise, so Edison can have a different Tithi on a given date than Delhi.
