The panchanga at the time of birth describes the energies of one’s life and how they may be used most auspiciously. Panchanga is Sanskrit for five limbs: pancha = five and anga = limbs. Panchanga is the five ways that celestial light influences the matter of the world: Thus, Sun (spirit) and Moon (matter) combine and incarnate through the five elements of matter to create our world and everything in it, including us.
