Panchang in Codcod, Western Visayas, Philippines Wed 13 Nov 1963

Shiva’s Pradosh puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Trayodashi runs from 07:35 on Wed 13 Nov to 09:49 on Thu 14 Nov, so only Wednesday’s pradosha (17:21–19:49) falls within it. No text giving Pradosh Vrat’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.

Pradosh Vrat: every date in Codcod

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 312°–324° is the 27th, Krishna Dwadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:41 here. Ekadashi ended at 05:38 Tue, before it. Dwadashi ends at 07:35, when the lead reaches 324°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 1 Nov, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Dwadashi began at 05:38 Tue, before sunrise at 05:41 Tue, and ends at 07:35, after the next sunrise at 05:41. Both days read Dwadashi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Tue 12 Nov ran from sunset 17:21 Tue to sunrise 05:41, 12 h 20 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 49 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:41 to 17:21, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 27 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:21 to 05:41 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 32 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′. Hasta spans 160°00′–173°20′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 166°40′. It leaves at 13:13, for Chitra.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 206.4° + 169.6° = 376°, one full turn and 16°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 13°20′–26°40′ is the 2nd, Priti. It ends at 01:22 Thu, then Ayushmana.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwadashi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava ended at 18:34 Tue, when the lead reached 318°; Taitila runs until 07:35.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:41 to 05:41 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 17 Oct 20:42 Thu to 16 Nov 14:50 Sat the Sun stayed in Tula, entering Vrishchika at 16 Nov 18:39 Sat, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Kartika, before Kartika 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 16 Nov, with the Sun in Tula, begins Kartika (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Kartika (Adhik) here, and Kartika (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 25 Mar 1963, 20:09 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 225.6° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2020; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1885.
