When is Chandra Grahan (lunar eclipse) in 2027?

Chandra Grahan (lunar eclipse) falls on 20 February 2027. That date is calculated for New Delhi; because the tithi begins and ends at a local clock time, Ganak recomputes it for your own city.

How is Chandra Grahan (lunar eclipse) observed?

On the night of this lunar grahan, if it is visible at your city Sutak begins three prahar — about nine hours — before the eclipse begins here, and ends at Moksha. Ganak counts real prahars (a prahar is a quarter of the daytime, or a quarter of the night), which is why the start is rarely exactly nine hours earlier. Children, the elderly and the unwell keep one prahar, about three hours. Avoid eating and starting new sacred work during Sutak unless your lineage allows further exceptions.

What is the significance of Chandra Grahan (lunar eclipse)?

Chandra grahan is Earth's shadow on the full Moon when syzygy falls near the nodes. Devotees chant, meditate and offer silent prayer until the Moon is released.

What are the food and fasting rules for Chandra Grahan (lunar eclipse)?

Avoid meals during Sutak when the grahan is visible; food prepared earlier may be kept per household rule.

When is the parana — breaking the fast — for Chandra Grahan (lunar eclipse)?

Eat after Moksha and bath when Sutak ends for your lineage.

How does Chandra Grahan (lunar eclipse) vary by region?

Bengal and Tamil households may follow regional Chandipath or temple schedules. When the Moon sets before maximum eclipse, visibility may be partial; use the local contact times rather than a national schedule.
