How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Mon 16 May? Shukla Chaturdashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 158.1°: Shukla Chaturdashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 156°–168° is the 14th, Shukla Chaturdashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:05 here. Trayodashi ended at 01:24, before it. Chaturdashi ends at 22:10, when the lead reaches 168°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 3 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Mon 16 May? 03:47–04:26
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 03:47–04:26.
The night of Sun 15 May ran from sunset 19:23 Sun to sunrise 05:05, 9 h 42 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 38 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Dur Muhurtam is the 9th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 12:43–13:40 and 15:34–16:32.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Mon 16 May? 15:34–16:32
Dur Muhurtam is the 9th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 12:43–13:40 and 15:34–16:32.
Daylight here, 05:05 to 19:23, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 57 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Monday is the 9th and 12th, 12:43–13:40 and 15:34–16:32.
Which choghadiya is good on Mon 16 May?
05:05–06:52 is Amrita, ruled by Chandra (the Moon), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Monday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 05:05 to 19:23, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 47 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 19:23 to 05:04 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 12 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

Daylight here runs 05:05 to 19:23, 14 h 18 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 47 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Monday Rahu Kaal is the 2nd part, Yamaganda the 4th and Gulikai Kalam the 6th.

Which nakshatra is it on Mon 16 May? Swati
At sunrise the Moon was at 188.8°: Swati, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Swati spans 186°40′–200°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 186°40′. It leaves at 23:12, for Vishakha.
Which yoga is it on Mon 16 May? Vyatipata
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 219.5°: Vyatipata.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 30.7° + 188.8° = 219.5°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 16:00, then Variyana.
Which karana is it on Mon 16 May? Garaja
At sunrise the lead was 158.1°: the first half of Chaturdashi, Garaja.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturdashi is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja runs until 11:46, when the lead reaches 162°; Vanija until 22:10.
Which vara is Mon 16 May, and from when? Somawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:05 on Monday: Somawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:05 to 05:04 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.
Which Hindu month is Mon 16 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 3 May, with the Sun in Mesha: Vaishakha.
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: Mesha gives Vaishakha. The Sun enters Vrishabha on 15 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 2 Jun, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Mon 16 May in (purnimanta)? Vaishakha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Vaishakha.
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 3 May, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha. This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Mon 16 May in? Vikram 2068 · Shaka 1933
Vikram Samvat 2068 began at the Chaitra new moon of 3 Apr 2011.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 3 Apr 2011, 22:32 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 41.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2068; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1933.
