Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It holds both sunrises, 04:53 on Fri 6 Jun and 04:52 on Sat 7 Jun. Ekadashi (04:46 Fri 6 Jun to 07:18 Sat 7 Jun) and Dwadashi (07:18 Sat 7 Jun to 09:48 Sun 8 Jun) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Sat 7 Jun. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Fri 6 Jun Dashami lasts until 04:46, inside it (03:17–04:53); on Sat 7 Jun Ekadashi holds all of it.

Nirjala Ekadashi: every date in Baoding

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 120°–132° is the 11th, Shukla Ekadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 04:52 here. Dashami ended at 04:46 Fri, before it. Ekadashi ends at 07:18, when the lead reaches 132°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 27 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Ekadashi began at 04:46 Fri, before sunrise at 04:53 Fri, and ends at 07:18, after the next sunrise at 04:52. Both days read Ekadashi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Fri 6 Jun ran from sunset 19:40 Fri to sunrise 04:52, 9 h 12 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 36 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 04:52 to 19:41, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 51 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 19:41 to 04:52 Sun, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 8 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′. Chitra spans 173°20′–186°40′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 180°. It leaves at 12:09, for Swati.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 52.2° + 183.1° = 235.3°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 226°40′–240°00′ is the 18th, Variyana. It ends at 13:47, then Parigha.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ekadashi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 18:02 Fri, when the lead reached 126°; Vishti runs until 07:18.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 04:52 to 04:52 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.

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: Vrishabha gives Jyeshtha. The Sun enters Mithuna on 15 Jun, inside the month. The next new moon, 25 Jun, finds it in Mithuna and begins Ashadha.

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 27 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha. This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 29 Mar 2025, 18:57 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 67.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2082; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1947.
