Panchang in Codcod, Western Visayas, Philippines Thu 26 Jan 2034

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 60°–72° is the 6th, Shukla Shashthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:10 here. Panchami ended at 09:34 Wed, before it. Shashthi ends at 07:32, when the lead reaches 72°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 20 Jan, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Saptami began at 07:32 and ended at 05:31 Fri, between the sunrises of 06:10 and 06:10 Fri. Thursday reads Shashthi and Friday reads Ashtami: Saptami is a kshaya tithi here.

Codcod · UTC+8

Sunrise here, 06:10, came before Shashthi ended at 07:32: this day reads Shashthi. Saptami ends at 05:31 Fri, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Saptami: it is kshaya.

The night of Wed 25 Jan ran from sunset 17:48 Wed to sunrise 06:10, 12 h 22 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 49 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:10 to 17:48, 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, 17:48 to 06:10 Fri, 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′. Revati spans 346°40′–360°00′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 350°. It leaves at 18:11, for Ashwini.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 281.7° + 352.9° = 634.6°, one full turn and 274.6°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 266°40′–280°00′ is the 21st, Siddha. It ends at 14:43, then Sadhya.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Shashthi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava ended at 20:33 Wed, when the lead reached 66°; Taitila runs until 07:32.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:10 to 06:10 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, 19 Feb, 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 20 Jan, with the Sun in Makara, began Magha. This Shukla paksha reads Magha in both counts.

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 295.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2090; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1955.
