Panchang in Codcod, Western Visayas, Philippines Fri 13 Oct 2028

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 276°–288° is the 24th, Krishna Navami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:35 here. Ashtami ended at 07:25 Thu, before it. Navami ends at 05:53, when the lead reaches 288°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 4 Oct, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Dashami began at 05:53 and ended at 03:43 Sat, between the sunrises of 05:35 and 05:35 Sat. Friday reads Navami and Saturday reads Ekadashi: Dashami is a kshaya tithi here.

Sunrise here, 06:20, came after Navami ended at 03:23: this day reads Dashami.

Codcod · UTC+8

Sunrise here, 05:35, came before Navami ended at 05:53: this day reads Navami. Dashami ends at 03:43 Sat, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Dashami: it is kshaya.

The night of Thu 12 Oct ran from sunset 17:31 Thu to sunrise 05:35, 12 h 4 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:35 to 17:30, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 29 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:30 to 05:35 Sat, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 30 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′. Pushya spans 93°20′–106°40′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 103°20′. It leaves at 10:44, for Ashlesha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 175.8° + 103.7° = 279.5°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 266°40′–280°00′ is the 21st, Siddha. It ends at 06:25, then Sadhya.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Navami is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila ended at 18:44 Thu, when the lead reached 282°; Garaja runs until 05:53.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:35 to 05:35 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.

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: Kanya gives Ashwina. The Sun enters Tula on 17 Oct, inside the month. The next new moon, 18 Oct, finds it in Tula and begins Kartika.

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 18 Oct, with the Sun in Tula, begins Kartika. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Kartika here, and Ashwina in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 26 Mar 2028, 12:31 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 194° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2085; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1950.
