October 2026 spans the lunar months of Bhadrapada and Ashwina. It opens on Krishna Panchami, with the moon in Vrishabha, and closes on Krishna Shashthi. The grid above shows every day's tithi and the exact time it ends — a tithi rarely fills a calendar day, so the end time is what tells you how much of it is left.

This month the full moon falls on Monday, 26 October 2026, and the new moon on Saturday, 10 October 2026.

Festivals this month: Mahalaya Amavasya on Saturday, 10 October 2026, Sharad Navaratri (Dasara) on Sunday, 11 October 2026, Vijayadashami (Dasara) on Wednesday, 21 October 2026. Each links to its own page with the pooja vidhanam, samagri and slokas, and to that day's full panchangam.

Days are getting shorter through the month: the daylight period runs 11h 56m on the first and 11h 18m on the last. That matters more than it sounds, because rahu kalam, yamagandam and gulika kalam are each an eighth of the daylight period — so they shift and change length along with it. The timings on each day's page are computed for the city you have selected.
