How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Fri 12 May? Shukla Panchami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 52.5°: Shukla Panchami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 48°–60° is the 5th, Shukla Panchami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:26 here. Chaturthi ended at 19:38 Thu, before it. Panchami ends at 22:02, when the lead reaches 60°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 7 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Fri 12 May? 03:54–04:40
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 03:54–04:40.
The night of Thu 11 May ran from sunset 18:00 Thu to sunrise 05:26, 11 h 26 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Fri 12 May? 11:18–12:08
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 11:18–12:08.

When is Dur Muhurtam on Fri 12 May? 12:08–12:59
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th and 9th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 07:57–08:47 and 12:08–12:59.
Daylight here, 05:26 to 18:00, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Friday is the 4th and 9th, 07:57–08:47 and 12:08–12:59.
Which choghadiya is good on Fri 12 May?
05:26–07:00 is Chara, ruled by Shukra (Venus), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Friday's daylight, counted neutral.
Daylight here, 05:26 to 18:00, 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.

Which nakshatra is it on Fri 12 May? Ardra
At sunrise the Moon was at 79.7°: Ardra, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Ardra spans 66°40′–80°00′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 76°40′. It leaves at 06:00, for Punarvasu.
Which yoga is it on Fri 12 May? Shula
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 107°: Shula.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 27.3° + 79.7° = 107°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 106°40′–120°00′ is the 9th, Shula. It ends at 05:47 Sat, then Ganda.
Which karana is it on Fri 12 May? Bava
At sunrise the lead was 52.5°: the first half of Panchami, Bava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Panchami is Bava and the second Balava. Bava runs until 08:49, when the lead reaches 54°; Balava until 22:02.
Which vara is Fri 12 May, and from when? Shukrawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:26 on Friday: Shukrawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:26 to 05:25 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.
Which Hindu month is Fri 12 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 7 May, with the Sun in Mesha: Vaishakha.
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: Mesha gives Vaishakha. The Sun enters Vrishabha on 15 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 6 Jun, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Fri 12 May in (purnimanta)? Vaishakha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Vaishakha.
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 7 May, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha. This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Fri 12 May in? Vikram 2035 · Shaka 1900
Vikram Samvat 2035 began at the Chaitra new moon of 7 Apr 1978.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 7 Apr 1978, 23:15 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 33.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2035; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1900.

What time is moonrise on Fri 12 May? 09:19
