Panchang in Baoding, Hebei, China Mon 8 Jun 2026

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 252°–264° is the 22nd, Krishna Saptami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 04:52 here. Shashthi ended at 05:11 Sun, before it. Saptami ends at 05:55, when the lead reaches 264°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 31 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Sun 7 Jun ran from sunset 19:41 Sun to sunrise 04:52, 9 h 11 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 Tue, 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′. Shatabhisha spans 306°40′–320°00′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 313°20′. It leaves at 11:40, for Purva Bhadrapada.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 52.9° + 316.4° = 369.3°, one full turn and 9.3°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 0°00′–13°20′ is the 1st, Vishkambha. It ends at 11:58, then Priti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Saptami is Vishti and the second Bava. Vishti ended at 17:38 Sun, when the lead reached 258°; Bava runs until 05:55.

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

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 17 May 04:01 Sun to 15 Jun 10:54 Mon the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 15 Jun 15:22 Mon, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Jyeshtha, before Jyeshtha itself.

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 15 Jun, with the Sun in Vrishabha, begins Jyeshtha (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) here, and Jyeshtha (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 2026, 09:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 78.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
