How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 16 Dec? Shukla Saptami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 79.6°: Shukla Saptami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 72°–84° is the 7th, Shukla Saptami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:06 here. Shashthi ended at 12:49 Tue, before it. Saptami ends at 14:16, when the lead reaches 84°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 8 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 16 Dec? 03:35–04:21
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 03:35–04:21.
The night of Tue 15 Dec ran from sunset 17:45 Tue to sunrise 05:06, 11 h 21 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 16 Dec? 11:00–11:51
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:00–11:51.
Daylight here, 05:06 to 17:45, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:00–11:51: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 16 Dec?
05:06–06:41 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 05:06 to 17:45, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 34 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 17:45 to 05:06 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 25 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
Daylight in 8 parts
When is Rahu Kaal on Wed 16 Dec? 11:26–13:00
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 11:26–13:00.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 16 Dec? 06:41–08:16
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 06:41–08:16.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 16 Dec? 09:51–11:26
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 09:51–11:26.
Daylight here runs 05:06 to 17:45, 12 h 39 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 34 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Wednesday Rahu Kaal is the 5th part, Yamaganda the 2nd and Gulikai Kalam the 4th.
Sunrise and sunset
What time is sunrise on Wed 16 Dec? 05:06
Day here: sunrise 05:06, sunset 17:45, 12 h 39 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 16 Dec? 17:45
Day here: sunrise 05:06, sunset 17:45, 12 h 39 m of daylight.
Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 12 h 39 m and the night until the next sunrise 11 h 21 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 16 Dec? Shatabhisha
At sunrise the Moon was at 319.8°: Shatabhisha, pada 4.
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 4 at 316°40′. It leaves at 05:32, for Purva Bhadrapada.
Which yoga is it on Wed 16 Dec? Vajra
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 559.9°, one turn and 199.9°: Vajra.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 240.1° + 319.8° = 559.9°, one full turn and 199.9°. 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 05:16, then Siddhi.
Which karana is it on Wed 16 Dec? Vanija
At sunrise the lead was 79.6°: the second half of Saptami, Vanija.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Saptami is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja ended at 01:38, when the lead reached 78°; Vanija runs until 14:16.
Which vara is Wed 16 Dec, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:06 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:06 to 05:06 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 16 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 8 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika: Margashirsha.
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: Vrishchika gives Margashirsha. The Sun enters Dhanu on 16 Dec, inside the month. The next new moon, 7 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.
Which Hindu month is Wed 16 Dec in (purnimanta)? Margashirsha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to 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 8 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 16 Dec in? Vikram 2083 · Shaka 1948
Vikram Samvat 2083 began at the Chaitra new moon of 18 Mar 2026.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 18 Mar 2026, 22:23 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 265.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
Moonrise and moonset
What time is moonrise on Wed 16 Dec? 10:56
The Moon rises here at 10:56.
What time is moonset on Wed 16 Dec? 23:19
The Moon was down at sunrise and rises at 10:56, in this day's daylight; it sets again at 23:19.
