Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 07:46 on Fri 20 Nov, after that sunrise (07:37), and ends at 07:02 on Sat 21 Nov, before the next (07:38 Sat): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Fri 20 Nov.

Dev Uthani Ekadashi: every date in Azhatebage

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 108°–120° is the 10th, Shukla Dashami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:37 here. Navami ended at 07:36 Thu, before it. Dashami ends at 07:46, when the lead reaches 120°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 Nov, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Ekadashi began at 07:46 and ended at 07:02 Sat, between the sunrises of 07:37 and 07:38 Sat. Friday reads Dashami and Saturday reads Dwadashi: Ekadashi is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Thu 19 Nov ran from sunset 17:34 Thu to sunrise 07:37, 14 h 3 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 56 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 07:37 to 17:33, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 14 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:33 to 07:38 Sat, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 45 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Uttara Bhadrapada spans 333°20′–346°40′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 333°20′. It leaves at 07:20 Sat, for Revati.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 213.5° + 333.4° = 546.9°, one full turn and 186.9°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 186°40′–200°00′ is the 15th, Vajra. It ends at 05:25 Sat, then Siddhi.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dashami is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila ended at 19:48 Thu, when the lead reached 114°; Garaja runs until 07:46.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:37 to 07:38 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.

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: Tula gives Kartika. The Sun enters Vrishchika on 16 Nov, inside the month. The next new moon, 9 Dec, finds it in Vrishchika and begins Margashirsha.

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 9 Nov, with the Sun in Tula, began Kartika. This Shukla paksha reads Kartika in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 2026, 07:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 239.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
