The full daily Panchang for Toronto: today's tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and vara, with sunrise, sunset, Rahu Kaal and Choghadiya in your local time.
The five limbs — tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and vara — change at moments fixed by the Moon and Sun, not by the clock, so a tithi can begin mid-afternoon in Toronto and be reported on a different date by a panchang computed elsewhere. This page resolves all five against Toronto's local sunrise, which is the reference Vedic tradition uses to name the day.
Toronto runs on America/Toronto, not IST, so an Indian panchang does not transfer here directly. At 79.38°W the Sun peaks about 18 minutes later than the standard-time clock reads. Every timing on this page is computed from Toronto's own sunrise and sunset.
Toronto sits at 43.65°N. Daylight here runs to about 15h 15m at its longest and about 8h 45m at its shortest — a swing of roughly 6h 31m across the year. Because the eight daytime Choghadiya periods are made by dividing sunrise-to-sunset into eight equal parts, each period in Toronto is noticeably longer in summer than in winter. Rahu Kaal, being one-eighth of the day, moves the same way.
Timings are computed for 43.65°N, 79.38°W (America/Toronto) with the Swiss Ephemeris: the day's exact sunrise and sunset first, then Rahu Kaal, the Choghadiya periods and the panchang limbs derived from them. Nothing is approximated from a nearby larger city.
No. Toronto is on America/Toronto while an Indian panchang publishes everything in IST, so the timings have to be recomputed against local sunrise here.
Because it is not a fixed clock time — it is one-eighth of the daylight span, measured from that morning's sunrise. Daylight in Toronto varies by about 6h 31m across the year, so both the start time and the length of Rahu Kaal move with it.
No. Rahu Kaal, Choghadiya and the panchang are properties of place and date — identical for everyone in Toronto on a given day. A muhurat chosen against your own chart is a separate question and needs your birth details.
