About this month
December 2026 in Sacramento, CA runs through Kartika and Margashirsha masas. Sunrise moves from 7:06 AM on the 1st to 7:25 AM on the 31th, so Rahu Kalam, Abhijit and every other timing shift with it.
Dates follow the tithi at Sacramento's sunrise (or the kaal each festival requires), which is why some fall a day earlier than in India.
