The Panchang for Friday, September 11, 2026, marks Bhadrapada Krishna Amavasya, with the Moon in Simha Rashi (Leo) and Purva Phalguni nakshatra during the first part of the day. Bhopal calculations place Amavasya until approximately 8:57 AM, followed by Shukla Pratipada.

Panchang timings are location-specific and can vary slightly between calculation systems. The following timings are presented primarily for Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, with Gwalior timings noted where useful.

Tithi, Nakshatra and Moon Sign

The Amavasya tithi began on September 10 and continues into the morning of September 11, ending at approximately 8:57 AM in Bhopal.

The Moon remains in Simha (Leo), while Purva Phalguni nakshatra continues until around 1:16 PM in Bhopal. Sadhya Yoga continues until approximately 5:02 PM.

Abhijit and Brahma Muhurat

For Madhya Pradesh, exact Muhurat timings vary between cities.

In Gwalior, Brahma Muhurat is calculated at approximately 4:25 AM to 5:13 AM, while Abhijit Muhurat is around 11:49 AM to 12:37 PM.

Bhopal calculations place sunrise around 6:05–6:06 AM, with midday and Muhurat timings shifting slightly according to the city's local sunrise and sunset.

Choghadiya Timings

For Bhopal, the daytime Choghadiya sequence is approximately:

Char: 6:05–7:38 AM
Labh: 7:38–9:11 AM
Amrit: 9:11–10:44 AM

These timings are based on Bhopal's local sunrise and sunset and can differ for cities such as Gwalior, Indore, Jabalpur and Rewa.

Hora Timings for Important Activities

Traditional Hora calculations divide daylight into planetary periods.

Venus Hora is traditionally associated with relationships, beauty and creative activities, while Mercury Hora is linked with communication, learning and trade.

Jupiter Hora is traditionally associated with education, wisdom and important work, while Sun Hora is connected with authority and leadership.

These associations are part of traditional Vedic astrology and are not scientifically established predictors of outcomes.

Rahu Kaal and Other Periods to Avoid

For Bhopal, Rahu Kaal on September 11 is approximately 10:45 AM to 12:18 PM. Yamaganda is around 3:24 PM to 4:57 PM, while Gulika Kaal falls around 7:39 AM to 9:12 AM.

For Gwalior, Rahu Kaal is calculated at approximately 10:40 AM to 12:13 PM, demonstrating why city-specific Panchang calculations are important.

Special Significance of Bhadrapada Amavasya

Bhadrapada Amavasya is traditionally significant for ancestral remembrance, charity, prayer and spiritual observances.

Devotees may observe rituals such as tarpan, meditation, temple visits and charity according to their family and regional traditions.

Since Amavasya ends during the morning of September 11, those following specific religious practices should follow the local Panchang and their customary ritual timings.

Practical Advice for September 11

Those following the Panchang can use the day for reflection, prayer, meditation, charity and completing pending responsibilities.

Anyone planning a ceremony, property transaction or other major event should obtain a location-specific Panchang for their Madhya Pradesh city, because sunrise, sunset, Rahu Kaal, Choghadiya and Muhurat timings differ across the state.

For Bhopal, the key timing points are the 8:57 AM end of Amavasya, the late-morning Muhurat windows and the 10:45 AM–12:18 PM Rahu Kaal.

The broader traditional message of the day is simple: complete what needs closure, act thoughtfully and begin new work with clear intentions.
