Panchang in Codcod, Western Visayas, Philippines Wed 25 Oct 2034

Shiva’s Pradosh puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Trayodashi runs from 05:49 on Wed 25 Oct to 03:16 on Thu 26 Oct, so only Wednesday’s pradosha (17:25–19:51) falls within it. No text giving Pradosh Vrat’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.

Pradosh Vrat: every date in Codcod

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 132°–144° is the 12th, Shukla Dwadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:36 here. Ekadashi ended at 07:42 Tue, before it. Dwadashi ends at 05:49, when the lead reaches 144°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 12 Oct, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Trayodashi began at 05:49 and ended at 03:16 Thu, between the sunrises of 05:36 and 05:37 Thu. Wednesday reads Dwadashi and Thursday reads Chaturdashi: Trayodashi is a kshaya tithi here.

Codcod · UTC+8

Sunrise here, 05:36, came before Dwadashi ended at 05:49: this day reads Dwadashi. Trayodashi ends at 03:16 Thu, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Trayodashi: it is kshaya.

The night of Tue 24 Oct ran from sunset 17:25 Tue to sunrise 05:36, 12 h 11 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:36 to 17:25, 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, 17:25 to 05:37 Thu, 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′. Purva Bhadrapada spans 320°00′–333°20′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 330°. It leaves at 09:23, for Uttara Bhadrapada.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 187.2° + 331.1° = 518.3°, one full turn and 158.3°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 146°40′–160°00′ is the 12th, Dhruva. It ends at 08:17, then Vyaghata.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwadashi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava ended at 18:51 Tue, when the lead reached 138°; Balava runs until 05:49.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:36 to 05:37 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: Kanya gives Ashwina. The Sun enters Tula on 17 Oct, inside the month. The next new moon, 11 Nov, 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 12 Oct, with the Sun in Kanya, began Ashwina. This Shukla paksha reads Ashwina in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 20 Mar 2034, 18:14 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 211.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2091; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1956.
