How each value is worked out

Which tithi is on Wed 16 Dec? Shukla Saptami

At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 82°: Shukla Saptami.

Sun New moon 0° 82.0° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Saptami 72°–84° Full moon 180°
Sun New moon 0° 82.0° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Saptami 72°–84° Full moon 180°
Earth at the centre · Sun fixed at the top · Moon moves counter-clockwise · not to scale

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 72°–84° is the 7th, Shukla Saptami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:01 here. Shashthi ended at 09:49 Tue, before it. Saptami ends at 11:16, when the lead reaches 84°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 8 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 16 Dec? 05:17–06:09

Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:17–06:09.

Sunset 18:05 Tue Sunrise 07:01 Wed time, not height Tue 15 Dec daylight 14 1
Sunset 18:05 Tue Sunrise 07:01 Wed time, not height Tue 15 Dec daylight 1
Night below the line, in 15 muhurtas, clockwise from sunset · Tuesday's daylight dimmed

The night of Tue 15 Dec ran from sunset 18:05 Tue to sunrise 07:01, 12 h 56 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 51 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight in 15 muhurtas

When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 16 Dec? 12:11–12:55

Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 12:11–12:55.

Sunrise 07:01 Sunset 18:05 Sunrise 07:01 Thu time, not height 8 1
Sunrise 07:01 Sunset 18:05 Sunrise 07:01 Thu time, not height 8 1
Day above the line, night below · clockwise from sunrise

Daylight here, 07:01 to 18:05, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 44 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 12:11–12:55: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.

Which choghadiya is good on Wed 16 Dec?

07:01–08:24 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.

Sunrise 07:01 Sunset 18:05 Sunrise 07:01 Thu time, not height Labha
Sunrise 07:01 Sunset 18:05 Sunrise 07:01 Thu time, not height Labha
Day above the line, night below · clockwise from sunrise

Daylight here, 07:01 to 18:05, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 23 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:05 to 07:01 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 37 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

Daylight in 8 parts

When is Rahu Kaal on Wed 16 Dec? 12:33–13:56

Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:33–13:56.

When is Yamagandam on Wed 16 Dec? 08:24–09:47

Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 08:24–09:47.

When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 16 Dec? 11:10–12:33

Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 11:10–12:33.

Sunrise 07:01 Sunset 18:05 Sunrise 07:01 Thu time, not height 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Sunrise 07:01 Sunset 18:05 Sunrise 07:01 Thu time, not height 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Day above the line, night below · clockwise from sunrise · dashed: Yamaganda 2, Gulikai Kalam 4

Daylight here runs 07:01 to 18:05, 11 h 4 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 23 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Wednesday Rahu Kaal is the 5th part, Yamaganda the 2nd and Gulikai Kalam the 4th.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 16 Dec? Purva Bhadrapada

At sunrise the Moon was at 322.3°: Purva Bhadrapada, pada 1.

Moon Sun 0° Purva Bhadrapada Moon 322.3° next: Uttara Bhadrapada Earth
Moon Sun 0° Purva Bhadrapada Moon 322.3° next: Uttara Bhadrapada Earth
Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · 0° at the top, counter-clockwise

The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Purva Bhadrapada spans 320°00′–333°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 320°. It leaves at 04:00 Thu, for Uttara Bhadrapada.

Which yoga is it on Wed 16 Dec? Siddhi

At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 562.6°, one turn and 202.6°: Siddhi.

Sun 240.3° + Moon 322.3° = 562.6° one turn + 202.6° Siddhi 200°00′–213°20′ Moon Sun 0°
Sun 240.3° + Moon 322.3° = 562.6° one turn + 202.6° Siddhi 200°00′–213°20′ Moon Sun 0°
Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · 0° at the top, counter-clockwise

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 240.3° + 322.3° = 562.6°, one full turn and 202.6°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 200°00′–213°20′ is the 16th, Siddhi. It ends at 01:51 Thu, then Vyatipata.

Which karana is it on Wed 16 Dec? Vanija

At sunrise the lead was 82°: the second half of Saptami, Vanija.

Sun New moon 0° 82.0° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Saptami 72°–84° Vanija 78°–84° Full moon 180°
Sun New moon 0° 82.0° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Saptami 72°–84° Vanija 78°–84° Full moon 180°
Earth at the centre · Sun fixed at the top · Moon moves counter-clockwise · each 12° tithi halved into karanas · not to scale

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Saptami is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja ended at 22:38 Tue, when the lead reached 78°; Vanija runs until 11:16.

Which vara is Wed 16 Dec, and from when? Budhawara

This day began at sunrise, 07:01 on Wednesday: Budhawara.

Budhawara Sunrise 07:01 Sunset 18:05 Sunrise 07:01 Thu time, not height 00:00 Thu still Budhawara
Budhawara Sunrise 07:01 Sunset 18:05 Sunrise 07:01 Thu time, not height 00:00 Thu still Budhawara
One turn of the wheel is one vara, sunrise to sunrise · clockwise

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:01 to 07:01 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

Which Hindu month is Wed 16 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha

This month began at the new moon of 8 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika: Margashirsha.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Vrishchika 10 11 12 0° Earth Dhanu
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Vrishchika 10 11 12 0° Earth Dhanu
Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · ring: the Sun's yearly path in 12 rashis of 30°, numbered from 0° · Sun's path from new moon to new moon

An amanta month runs from new moon to new moon and takes its name from the rashi the Sun is in at the new moon that begins it: Vrishchika gives Margashirsha. The Sun enters Dhanu on 15 Dec, inside the month. The next new moon, 7 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.

Which Hindu month is Wed 16 Dec in (purnimanta)? Margashirsha

Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Margashirsha.

Amanta Margashirsha Purnimanta Margashirsha Krishna Shukla Wed 16 Dec Full moon 24 Nov New moon 8 Dec Full moon 23 Dec New moon 7 Jan
Amanta Purnimanta Margashirsha Margashirsha Krishna Shukla Wed 16 Dec Full moon 24 Nov New moon 8 Dec Full moon 23 Dec New moon 7 Jan
Time runs left to right · amanta: new moon to new moon · purnimanta: full moon to full moon

A purnimanta month runs from full moon to full moon, so its waning half comes first. It shares its name with the amanta month that its second half falls in: the new moon of 8 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.

Which samvat year is Wed 16 Dec in? Vikram 2083 · Shaka 1948

Vikram Samvat 2083 began at the Chaitra new moon of 18 Mar 2026.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 Meena 0° Earth Chaitra new moon 18 Mar 2026 19:23 · Sun in Meena Sunrise, Wed 16 Dec Sun at 240.3°
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 Meena 0° Earth Chaitra new moon 18 Mar 2026 19:23 · Sun in Meena Sunrise, Wed 16 Dec Sun at 240.3°
Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · ring: the Sun's yearly path in 12 rashis of 30°, numbered from 0° · Sun's path since the year began

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 18 Mar 2026, 19:23 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 266.1° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
