Significance of Nirjala Ekadashi: June 25 Panchang Insights

New Delhi, June 24: The Panchang holds significant importance in Hinduism. Before undertaking any auspicious activity, travel, investment, or worship, consulting the Panchang is essential. It is based on the positions of the sun, moon, and other celestial bodies.

On June 25, 2026 (Thursday), the date marks Jyeshtha Shukla Paksha Ekadashi (Nirjala Ekadashi), lasting until 8:09 PM. Nirjala Ekadashi is regarded as the most important and powerful Ekadashi of the year. Worshipping Lord Vishnu on this day is considered highly beneficial. The Amrit Kaal will be from 6:46 AM to 8:32 AM, while Brahma Muhurat will occur from 4:11 AM to 4:59 AM.

Sunrise will be at 5:24 AM and sunset at 7:21 PM. The moon will rise at 3:28 PM and set at 2:31 AM. According to the Panchang, on June 25, 2026, the sun will be in Ardra Nakshatra, ruled by Rahu, while the moon will be in Swati Nakshatra, transiting through Libra.

On this day, Shiv Yoga will be effective, not Harshan Yoga. The Vedic Panchang indicates that there will be no Vajra Yoga, but a combination of ‘Shiv’ and ‘Siddh’ Yoga will occur.

Any significant work performed during the Abhijit Muhurat from 12:02 PM to 12:56 PM is considered highly auspicious. This time is regarded as the most favorable for starting new ventures, performing rituals, or making important decisions.

Rahu Kaal will be from 2:10 PM to 3:50 PM, Gulika Kaal from 9:08 AM to 10:48 AM, and Yamaghanta Kaal from 5:46 AM to 7:27 AM. Traditional beliefs suggest avoiding the initiation of new tasks during these periods, as they are deemed inauspicious.

On this day, the sun will be in Gemini and the moon in Libra. Additionally, there will be a directional obstacle (Disha Shool) in the south. According to astrology and Vastu, it is advisable to avoid traveling in this direction. If travel is necessary, one should adhere to certain astrological remedies.
