Chandra Grahan Paush Purnima 2026: In the Hindu calendar, Purnima is the last date of the month and after it the new month begins.

Why is there confusion about lunar eclipse

It is true that whenever a lunar eclipse occurs, it occurs only on the full moon day. But such an incident of lunar eclipse does not happen on the full moon date of every month but in special circumstances. In fact, the Moon’s orbit is inclined by about 5 degrees from the Earth’s orbit and due to this inclination, on most full moon days the Moon passes above or below the Earth’s shadow and an eclipse does not occur. A lunar eclipse occurs only when the Sun, Earth and Moon are completely aligned.

There is no lunar eclipse today?

Many people feel that today, on January 3, 2026, a lunar eclipse is taking place on the day of Paush Purnima. That’s why people are searching on the internet. But there has been no confirmation of eclipse occurring on this day through astrology, almanac or scientifically. That means today there is no lunar eclipse, but today the moon will be completely bright and will be full of 16 phases.

Special analysis by Dr. Anish Vyas, Director of Pal Balaji Astrology Institute, Jaipur, Jodhpur, has confirmed that, according to the calendar of 2026, Paush Purnima Tithi is not affected by the eclipse. Therefore, you do not need to take any precautions related to the eclipse. All auspicious works and religious rituals can be performed without any hindrance. But today on Paush Purnima there will be Rahukaal (3 January Rahu Kaal) from 09:50 to 11:08 in the morning. Do not do any auspicious work or worship at this time only.
