What is Yoga (in panchang)?
Yoga is the fourth limb of panchang. It comes from the sum of the Sun and Moon longitudes, with the full 360° cycle divided into 27 equal parts.
Each yoga lasts roughly a day and changes as the Moon and Sun's relative motion carries the sum past the next boundary. Of the 27 yogas, some are classically favourable (Siddha, Amrita, Vriddhi) and some inauspicious (Vishkumbha, Atiganda, Vyaghata).
A favourable yoga is considered supportive for new work, travel and wedding muhurats. An inauspicious yoga isn't an absolute block; it's read alongside the other panchang limbs.
FAQ
Questions about yoga
Is this "yoga" the same as Patanjali's yoga?
No. Panchang's 'yoga' is an astronomical value, the sum of the Sun and Moon longitudes. It is unrelated to the yoga sutras of Patanjali (asana, pranayama, meditation), the word is just shared.
Which yogas are considered most auspicious?
Siddha, Amrita, Vriddhi, Dhriti, Shobhana, Sukarma and Parigha are considered classically favourable. Siddha and Amrita in particular are singled out as supportive for new undertakings.
What is avoided during Vyaghata or Vishkumbha yoga?
Both are counted among the inauspicious yogas. Tradition avoids new business, starting travel, weddings and house-warmings during these windows; everyday work is not treated as restricted.
Does the yoga change-over time differ by city?
Yes. The exact moment a yoga rolls over depends on the city's latitude, longitude and time zone, so two cities can show slightly different end times on the same calendar day.
