Panchang in Codcod, Western Visayas, Philippines Wed 9 Nov 2033

The Sankashti fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 19:07 on Wed 9 Nov to 17:02 on Thu 10 Nov, so it holds moonrise only on Wed 9 Nov, at 19:51. 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, 05:40 here. Dwitiya ended at 21:50 Tue, before it. Tritiya ends at 19:07, when the lead reaches 216°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 7 Nov, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Tue 8 Nov ran from sunset 17:21 Tue to sunrise 05:40, 12 h 19 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 49 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:40 to 17:21, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 27 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:21 to 05:40 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 32 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′. Rohini spans 40°00′–53°20′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 50°. It leaves at 09:39, for Mrigashira.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 202.5° + 50.9° = 253.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 253°20′–266°40′ is the 20th, Shiva. It ends at 02:21 Thu, then Siddha.

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 runs until 08:25, when the lead reaches 210°; Vishti until 19:07.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:40 to 05:40 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

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: Tula gives Kartika. The Sun enters Vrishchika on 16 Nov, inside the month. The next new moon, 22 Nov, finds it in Vrishchika and begins Margashirsha.

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 22 Nov, with the Sun in Vrishchika, begins Margashirsha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Margashirsha here, and Kartika in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 31 Mar 2033, 01:51 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 216.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2090; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1955.
