Panchang in Codcod, Western Visayas, Philippines Thu 21 Feb 2030

The Sankashti fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 08:09 on Thu 21 Feb to 05:44 on Fri 22 Feb, so it holds moonrise only on Thu 21 Feb, at 20:41. No text giving Sankashti Chaturthi’s time was found; moonrise is Tithika’s convention.

Sankashti Chaturthi: every date in Codcod

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 204°–216° is the 18th, Krishna Tritiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:05 here. Dwitiya ended at 10:28 Wed, before it. Tritiya ends at 08:09, when the lead reaches 216°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 18 Feb, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Chaturthi began at 08:09 and ended at 05:44 Fri, between the sunrises of 06:05 and 06:04 Fri. Thursday reads Tritiya and Friday reads Panchami: Chaturthi is a kshaya tithi here.

Codcod · UTC+8

Sunrise here, 06:05, came before Tritiya ended at 08:09: this day reads Tritiya. Chaturthi ends at 05:44 Fri, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Chaturthi: it is kshaya.

The night of Wed 20 Feb ran from sunset 17:56 Wed to sunrise 06:05, 12 h 9 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:05 to 17:56, 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 night here, 17:56 to 06:04 Fri, 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 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 1 at 160°. It leaves at 23:34, for Chitra.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 308° + 162.9° = 470.9°, one full turn and 110.9°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 106°40′–120°00′ is the 9th, Shula. It ends at 20:17, then Ganda.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Tritiya is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 21:20 Wed, when the lead reached 210°; Vishti runs until 08:09.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:05 to 06:04 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.

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: Makara gives Magha. The Sun enters Kumbha on 13 Feb, inside the month. The next new moon, 4 Mar, finds it in Kumbha and begins Phalguna.

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 4 Mar, with the Sun in Kumbha, begins Phalguna. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Phalguna here, and Magha in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 15 Mar 2029, 12:19 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 337.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2086; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1951.
