Pradosh Vrat
Kolkata · Friday, 12/06/2026

Vrat day begins at sunrise: 04:51. Puja may be performed according to the interval or observance method below.
Puja, fast & Parana by tradition
Significance
Trayodashi evening worship dedicated to Shiva.
Observance / puja method
Bathe, prepare a clean worship space, offer water, bilva leaves and flowers to Shiva, and conclude with prayer and arati during the displayed evening interval.
Important rules
The date follows Trayodashi during Pradosha, not sunrise alone. Complete evening puja before concluding the fast according to household practice.
Rule references: Drik Panchang
Calculation information
Times follow the selected city’s IANA historical timezone; dates use the Gregorian calendar. The Panchang day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise. Values below begin at sunrise; every change is shown with its end time.

Yamaganda and daytime Gulika divide the existing sunrise-to-sunset interval into eight equal parts. Their weekday slots follow the usual Panchang convention. These are general daily windows, not a personal Muhurta recommendation.
Daily Moonrise/Moonset and relevant Vrat Moonrise reuse the existing ritual disc-centre convention without refraction. See Moon & Sun for the reference instant and horizon assumptions.
Brahma Muhurta uses the fourteenth of fifteen equal parts of the preceding sunset-to-sunrise night. Pradosh retains Avyani’s first fifth of the night; Nishita is its central fifteenth. These are declared conventions, not a claim that all traditions define them identically.
Durmuhurta uses weekday fifteenths of daylight; Tuesday also includes the seventh fifteenth of the night. Bhadra is the full Vishti Karana interval, without residence, face or tail subdivisions. Choghadiya divides day and night into eight parts each; Hora into twelve each. This daily Hora convention does not alter Kundali’s existing Hora calculation. Amrit in Choghadiya is a traditional slot name, not Nakshatra-based Amrit Kaal.
