Panchang in Codcod, Western Visayas, Philippines Mon 30 Mar 1992

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It holds both sunrises, 05:46 on Sun 29 Mar and 05:45 on Mon 30 Mar. Ekadashi (04:52 Sun 29 Mar to 07:22 Mon 30 Mar) and Dwadashi (07:22 Mon 30 Mar to 09:31 Tue 31 Mar) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Mon 30 Mar. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Sun 29 Mar Dashami lasts until 04:52, inside it (04:10–05:46); on Mon 30 Mar Ekadashi holds all of it.

Papamochani Ekadashi: every date in Codcod

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 300°–312° is the 26th, Krishna Ekadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:45 here. Dashami ended at 04:52 Sun, before it. Ekadashi ends at 07:22, when the lead reaches 312°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 19 Mar, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Ekadashi began at 04:52 Sun, before sunrise at 05:46 Sun, and ends at 07:22, after the next sunrise at 05:45. Both days read Ekadashi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Sun 29 Mar ran from sunset 17:57 Sun to sunrise 05:45, 11 h 48 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 47 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:45 to 17:57, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 31 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:57 to 05:45 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 28 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′. Dhanishtha spans 293°20′–306°40′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 296°40′. It leaves at 01:13 Tue, for Shatabhisha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 345.7° + 297° = 642.7°, one full turn and 282.7°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 280°00′–293°20′ is the 22nd, Sadhya. It ends at 01:32 Tue, then Shubha.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ekadashi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava ended at 18:09 Sun, when the lead reached 306°; Balava runs until 07:22.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:45 to 05:45 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.

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: Kumbha gives Phalguna. The Sun enters Meena on 14 Mar, inside the month. The next new moon, 3 Apr, finds it in Meena and begins Chaitra.

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 3 Apr, with the Sun in Meena, begins Chaitra. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Chaitra here, and Phalguna in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 16 Mar 1991, 16:10 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 374.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2048; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1913.
