Why Edmonton needs its own Panchang, not India's
The sun rises in Edmonton at 8:05 AM MDT today, 13 h 12 min after it rises in New Delhi. Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, Abhijit and Choghadiya are all counted from that local sunrise. New Delhi's Rahu Kaal today, converted to Edmonton time, would be 9:45 PM, Oct 16 to 11:11 PM, Oct 16 - but Edmonton's own Rahu Kaal is 10:42 AM to 12:00 PM.
Today both cities wake to the same tithi, Shukla Saptami. On days when a tithi changes between the two sunrises, a fast or festival can fall on a different date in Edmonton than in India - which is why festival dates abroad should be worked out for the city you live in. Tithi and Nakshatra ending times are the same instant everywhere, so those convert from IST exactly; anything tied to sunrise does not.
