Panchak 2026: In the scriptures of Sanatan Dharma, 16 rituals have been described from birth to death. The movement of planets and constellations is considered very important in a person's birth and life. Their effect is also seen on the death of a person. The time and constellation in which a person died affects his family and the further journey of the deceased soul. Therefore, the time of Panchak is considered very sensitive and painful for death.

Often this question comes in people's mind whether death in Panchak is really inauspicious, then the answer is yes. Death at this time is considered very inauspicious in religious scriptures. According to religious beliefs and Garuda Purana, death during Panchak period is not considered normal. During this period, if a loved one dies, the family members should follow special rules.

Panchak will be held in June 2026

In the month of June, Panchak will start from 07:03 pm on Saturday, 06 June 2026. This inauspicious period will end on Thursday, June 11, 2026, at 08:16 am. Since this time Panchak is starting from Saturday, it will be called Mrityu Panchak. In astrology, this is considered a time to be especially careful.

3 reasons to consider death inauspicious in Panchak

• According to Garuda Purana, if someone dies in Panchak, then there is a possibility of serious trouble, illness or death-like trouble for five other people in his family, clan or clan. This combination of five is the main reason for fear in the minds of people.
• According to the scriptures, the soul of someone who dies in Panchak faces difficulties in getting a place in the higher worlds. This hinders the spiritual journey of the deceased.
• Since collecting wood or doing any work related to it is prohibited during Panchak, special rules are asked to be followed for performing cremation (in which wood is used) during this period.

When does Panchak take place?

According to astrology, Panchak occurs when the Moon transits in Dhanishtha, Shatabhisha, Purvabhadrapada, Uttarabhadrapada and Revati Nakshatra. In astrology, the time of Panchak is seen as an inauspicious period.
