How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 16 Dec? Shukla Saptami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 77.9°: 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, 05:29 here. Shashthi ended at 16:49 Tue, before it. Saptami ends at 18:16, when the lead reaches 84°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 16 Dec? 04:02–04:46
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:02–04:46.
The night of Tue 15 Dec ran from sunset 18:31 Tue to sunrise 05:29, 10 h 58 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 16 Dec? 11:34–12:26
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:34–12:26.
Daylight here, 05:29 to 18:31, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 52 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:34–12:26: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 16 Dec?
05:29–07:07 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 05:29 to 18:31, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 37 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 18:31 to 05:30 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 22 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? 12:00–13:38
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:00–13:38.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 16 Dec? 07:07–08:45
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 07:07–08:45.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 16 Dec? 10:23–12:00
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 10:23–12:00.
Daylight here runs 05:29 to 18:31, 13 h 2 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 37 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? 05:29
Day here: sunrise 05:29, sunset 18:31, 13 h 2 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 16 Dec? 18:31
Day here: sunrise 05:29, sunset 18:31, 13 h 2 m of daylight.
Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 13 h 2 m and the night until the next sunrise 10 h 59 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 317.9°: 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 09:32, for Purva Bhadrapada.
Which yoga is it on Wed 16 Dec? Vajra
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 557.9°, one turn and 197.9°: Vajra.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 240° + 317.9° = 557.9°, one full turn and 197.9°. 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 09:16, then Siddhi.
Which karana is it on Wed 16 Dec? Garaja
At sunrise the lead was 77.9°: the first half of Saptami, Garaja.
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 runs until 05:38, when the lead reaches 78°; Vanija until 18:16.
Which vara is Wed 16 Dec, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:29 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:29 to 05:30 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 9 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 9 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 19 Mar 2026.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 2026, 02:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 265.8° 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? 11:23
The Moon rises here at 11:23.
What time is moonset on Wed 16 Dec? 23:48
The Moon was down at sunrise and rises at 11:23, in this day's daylight; it sets again at 23:48.
