Panchang in Chahārbāgh, Alborz Province, Iran Wed 3 Jun 2026

The Sankashti fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 19:21 on Wed 3 Jun to 21:30 on Thu 4 Jun, so it holds moonrise only on Wed 3 Jun, at 22:08. No text giving Sankashti Chaturthi’s time was found; moonrise is Tithika’s convention.

Sankashti Chaturthi: every date in Chahārbāgh

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 204°–216° is the 18th, Krishna Tritiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 04:51 here. Dwitiya ended at 17:01 Tue, before it. Tritiya ends at 19:21, when the lead reaches 216°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 31 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Tue 2 Jun ran from sunset 19:18 Tue to sunrise 04:51, 9 h 33 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 38 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 04:51 to 19:18, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 48 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 19:18 to 04:51 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 11 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′. Purva Ashadha spans 253°20′–266°40′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 256°40′. It leaves at 22:59, for Uttara Ashadha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 48.3° + 257.7° = 306°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 293°20′–306°40′ is the 23rd, Shubha. It ends at 06:12, then Shukla.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Tritiya is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija runs until 06:12, when the lead reaches 210°; Vishti until 19:21.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 04:51 to 04:51 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 16 May 23:31 Sat to 15 Jun 06:24 Mon the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 15 Jun 10:52 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, 04:53 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 74.1° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
