Sundays in December have that special hush – the kind where the winter sun peeks lazily over the horizon, and the world feels a touch slower, softer, like it’s permitting you to linger over that second cup of chai. On December 14, 2025, Krishna Paksha Dashami drapes the day in a gentle veil of reflection, with Chitra’s creative chisel inviting you to carve out quiet corners for contemplation or a casual catch-up. It’s not a day for dashing deeds, but for deliberate drifts – perhaps a family fast or a fleeting favour that feels like fate. With Saubhagya Yoga sprinkling a dash of good fortune and Rahu Kaal tucked into the afternoon, this Panchang is your Sunday sanctuary: A roadmap to restful rituals, mindful meanders, and the occasional “aha” that arrives unannounced. Whether you’re sidestepping inauspicious interludes or slipping into Abhijit for a lucky lunch, treat it as the cosmic coffee table book – flip through for flavour, not frenzy. Let’s linger on the lights and shadows of this Pausha Sunday, where the stars seem to say, “Slow down; the good stuff simmers.”
Today’s Core Elements: Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga & Karana
These aren’t rigid rules – they’re rhythmic reminders, like the subtle shift from a sigh to a smile. Lean in, and they’ll lend your day a little lift.
- Tithi: Krishna Paksha Dashami Tenth waning day from sunrise until 6:51 PM, then Ekadashi. Dashami, the tithi of triumph and transition, nudges toward noble nods – a fine fit for Durga darshans or wrapping up waning worries. It’s the eve of Ekadashi’s edge, so soften the sharp with a simple salutation. Shun the superficial; savour the sincere. Quick chant: “Om Dum Durgayei Namah” to dissolve the day’s dross.
- Nakshatra: Chitra until 2:59 PM, then Swati. Vishwakarma’s visionary vibe crafts Chitra’s charm – stellar for sketching ideas or smoothing squabbles, its gemstone gaze glints with genius. Post-noon, Swati sways with sovereignty for self-sovereign steps. Invoke the architect’s art for afternoon actions; let evening ease into inspiration.
- Yoga: Saubhagya until 11:44 AM, then Shobhana. Saubhagya’s fortunate flow favours morning merges – manifest those mini-milestones with a smile. Shobhana’s splendour shines post-lunch, sharpening your social sword. It’s a yoga for the auspicious: Aim for alliances, not altercations.
- Karana: Vishti until 6:51 PM, Bava until 11:44 AM. Vishti vetoes ventures for the bulk; Bava balances the basics in bursts. Begin with balance where you can, no blunders.
This cosmic crew? A blend of bold and balanced – brew it into your day for a dash of delight.
