How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 23 May? Shukla Navami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 99.4°: Shukla Navami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 96°–108° is the 9th, Shukla Navami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:24 here. Ashtami ended at 23:01 Tue, before it. Navami ends at 21:42, when the lead reaches 108°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 23 May? 03:53–04:38
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 03:53–04:38.
The night of Tue 22 May ran from sunset 18:03 Tue to sunrise 05:24, 11 h 21 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 23 May? 11:18–12:09
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:18–12:09.
Daylight here, 05:24 to 18:03, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:18–12:09: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 23 May?
05:24–06:59 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 05:24 to 18:03, 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.
The night here, 18:03 to 05:24 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 25 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 23 May? 11:43–13:18
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 11:43–13:18.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 23 May? 06:59–08:34
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 06:59–08:34.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 23 May? 10:09–11:43
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 10:09–11:43.
Daylight here runs 05:24 to 18:03, 12 h 39 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 34 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 23 May? 05:24
Day here: sunrise 05:24, sunset 18:03, 12 h 39 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 23 May? 18:03
Day here: sunrise 05:24, sunset 18:03, 12 h 39 m of daylight.
Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 12 h 39 m and the night until the next sunrise 11 h 21 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 23 May? Purva Phalguni
At sunrise the Moon was at 137°: Purva Phalguni, pada 2.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Purva Phalguni spans 133°20′–146°40′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 136°40′. It leaves at 22:24, for Uttara Phalguni.
Which yoga is it on Wed 23 May? Harshana
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 174.6°: Harshana.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 37.6° + 137° = 174.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 173°20′–186°40′ is the 14th, Harshana. It ends at 01:13 Thu, then Vajra.
Which karana is it on Wed 23 May? Balava
At sunrise the lead was 99.4°: the first half of Navami, Balava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Navami is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava runs until 10:19, when the lead reaches 102°; Kaulava until 21:42.
Which vara is Wed 23 May, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:24 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:24 to 05:24 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 23 May in (amanta)? Jyeshtha (Adhik)
No sankranti between the new moons of 15 May and 14 Jun: Adhika Jyeshtha.
A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 15 May 19:47 Tue to 14 Jun 03:43 Thu the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 15 Jun 14:06 Fri, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Jyeshtha, before Jyeshtha itself.
Which Hindu month is Wed 23 May in (purnimanta)? Jyeshtha (Adhik)
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Jyeshtha (Adhik).
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 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 23 May in? Vikram 2075 · Shaka 1940
Vikram Samvat 2075 began at the Chaitra new moon of 17 Mar 2018.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 17 Mar 2018, 21:11 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 64.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2075; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1940.

What time is moonrise on Wed 23 May? 12:49
The Moon rises here at 12:49.
What time is moonset on Wed 23 May? 01:24 Thu
The Moon was down at sunrise and rises at 12:49, in this day's daylight; it sets again at 01:24 Thu.
