Sankashti Chaturthi 2026 in Christchurch – dates and local timings
All 13 Sankashti Chaturthi dates of 2026 for Christchurch (New Zealand), with the start and end of the tithi in Christchurch local time (Pacific/Auckland; NZDT, NZST). The first is on Tuesday 6 January 2026 and the last on Sunday 27 December 2026. 4 of them fall on a weekend: 7 March 2026 (Sat), 5 April 2026 (Sun), 2 August 2026 (Sun), 27 December 2026 (Sun). Moonrise on these nights ranges from 7:08 PM (5 May 2026) to 12:18 AM (30 Oct) (29 October 2026). Angarki Sankashti (on a Tuesday): 6 January 2026, 5 May 2026, 29 September 2026. The vratam day is the day the krishna chaturthi prevails at local moonrise, since the fast is broken after sighting the Moon; the moonrise column gives that time. A Tuesday Sankashti is Angarki. 3 of the 13 dates fall on a different day than in India (Hyderabad), shown in the last column: the tithi ends at the same instant worldwide, but Christchurch's sunrise comes at a different moment of it. Clocks in Christchurch are 7 h 30 min ahead of India (IST) today, which is why a date and time copied from an Indian panchangam is wrong here. Each date links to that day's full panchangam for this city, with rahu kalam, nakshatra and end times.
