September 10, 2026: Siddha Yoga Steadies a Waning Shiva Day

A favorable Siddha yoga runs beneath Krishna Chaturdashi: advance existing work, honour ancestors, and avoid new launches.

On 10 September 2026 the moon enters Leo and Magha, Krishna Chaturdashi honours Shiva, and Siddha yoga favours finishing work over new starts. Get your free chart.

The page above is written for everyone. Your chart is not. Give us your birth date and place and we will show you which parts of it are true for you, and which are not. About 20 seconds, no account.

Three things turned over since yesterday. The waning moon moved out of Cancer into Leo, the tithi deepened from Trayodashi to Chaturdashi, and Siddha yoga replaced Shiva. The net reading is a favorable current running under a dark-fortnight day.

Siddha yoga is auspicious and favors positive action, so follow through on what you have already begun. But Krishna Chaturdashi belongs to Shiva and is marked poor for fresh starts. Advance your work today, do not launch anything new.

Chaturdashi holds until 10:34, and the morning carries most of its weight. Keep the early hours for quiet, finishing, or devotional work rather than first moves.

The moon sits in Magha until 14:05. Magha is ruled by Ketu and its powers are the Pitris, the ancestors, making this a natural day for remembrance: a thought, a small offering, gratitude to those who came before you.

One timing caution: the karana Vishti, also called Bhadra, colors the first half of the day, and tradition treats Bhadra as a time to pause auspicious work. Let it pass and the second half eases.

Sunrise in Delhi is 06:06 and sunset 18:29. Windows like Rahu Kaal move with your own city's sunrise, so read yours from your city's panchang rather than borrowing Delhi's.

The day's texture is one half of the story; how it lands on your own chart is the other. Give AstroMedha your birth date and it draws your chart free, no account, then ask it two questions about today. For the whole month, read September 2026, day by day.

Common questions

What tithi is it on 10 September 2026?
Krishna Paksha Chaturdashi, sacred to Shiva, which holds until 10:34, after which the waning fortnight moves toward its close.
Is 10 September 2026 a good day to start something new?
Not ideally. Siddha yoga favors positive action, but Chaturdashi is marked poor for fresh starts, so advance work already underway rather than launching.
Which nakshatra is the moon in on this day?
Magha, ruled by Ketu, with the Pitris (the ancestors) as its presiding powers, until 14:05, after which it moves on.
Why doesn't this page give my Rahu Kaal timing?
Rahu Kaal and similar windows are derived from local sunrise and shift from city to city, so check yours on the panchang tool rather than using Delhi's figures.
