Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 08:10 on Mon 25 Oct, after that sunrise (06:36), and ends at 05:52 on Tue 26 Oct, before the next (06:38 Tue): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Mon 25 Oct.

Rama Ekadashi: every date in Baoding

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 288°–300° is the 25th, Krishna Dashami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:36 here. Navami ended at 10:23 Sun, before it. Dashami ends at 08:10, when the lead reaches 300°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 15 Oct, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Ekadashi began at 08:10 and ended at 05:52 Tue, between the sunrises of 06:36 and 06:38 Tue. Monday reads Dashami and Tuesday reads Dwadashi: Ekadashi is a kshaya tithi here.

Baoding · UTC+8

Sunrise here, 06:36, came before Dashami ended at 08:10: this day reads Dashami. Ekadashi ends at 05:52 Tue, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Ekadashi: it is kshaya.

The night of Sun 24 Oct ran from sunset 17:28 Sun to sunrise 06:36, 13 h 8 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 52 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:36 to 17:26, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 21 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:26 to 06:38 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 39 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′. Magha spans 120°00′–133°20′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 123°20′. It leaves at 18:39, for Purva Phalguni.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 187° + 126.2° = 313.2°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 306°40′–320°00′ is the 24th, Shukla. It ends at 17:17, then Brahma.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dashami is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 21:18 Sun, when the lead reached 294°; Vishti runs until 08:10.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:36 to 06:38 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.

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: Kanya gives Ashwina. The Sun enters Tula on 18 Oct, inside the month. The next new moon, 29 Oct, finds it in Tula and begins Kartika.

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 29 Oct, with the Sun in Tula, begins Kartika. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Kartika here, and Ashwina in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 7 Apr 2027, 07:51 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 194.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2084; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1949.
