Jain Tithi, Parva & Pachkhan

Parva tithis (Bij, Pancham, Aatham, Agiyaras, Chaudas, plus Punam and Amas) are the fortnightly observance days of the Jain calendar. Pachkhan times below are calculated from your local sunrise and sunset.

Inauspicious & Auspicious Periods

Planetary Hora

Each hour of the day is ruled by a planet. The first hora starts at sunrise.

Choghadiya

The timing system used daily by the Jain and Gujarati trading community: 8 daytime + 8 nighttime periods. Labh and Amrit slots are favored for opening accounts, purchases, and new work.

Live Planetary Transits

Current sidereal positions of all 9 planets. In the Jain reading these indicate the karmic weather; they do not cause it.

Retrograde Tracker

A note on traditions: Shvetambara and Digambara calendars, and gacchas within them, can differ on which civil day a tithi is observed (kshaya and vriddhi tithis are handled differently). This page computes the astronomical tithi at your location. For vrat, pratikraman, and festival observance, follow the published panchang of your own sangh. Where traditions differ, none of them is wrong.
