Panchang in Codcod, Western Visayas, Philippines Sat 3 Oct 2037

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 264°–276° is the 23rd, Krishna Ashtami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:35 here. Saptami ended at 06:35 Fri, before it. Ashtami ends at 06:12, when the lead reaches 276°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 24 Sep, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Navami began at 06:12 and ended at 05:05 Sun, between the sunrises of 05:35 and 05:35 Sun. Saturday reads Ashtami and Sunday reads Dashami: Navami is a kshaya tithi here.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.

Sunrise here, 06:15, came after Ashtami ended at 03:42: this day reads Navami.

Codcod · UTC+8

Sunrise here, 05:35, came before Ashtami ended at 06:12: this day reads Ashtami. Navami ends at 05:05 Sun, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Navami: it is kshaya.

The night of Fri 2 Oct ran from sunset 17:37 Fri to sunrise 05:35, 11 h 58 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 47 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:35 to 17:36, 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 night here, 17:36 to 05:35 Sun, 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 fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Punarvasu spans 80°00′–93°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 80°. It leaves at 02:51 Sun, for Pushya.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 165.6° + 81.3° = 246.9°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 240°00′–253°20′ is the 19th, Parigha. It ends at 16:09, then Shiva.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ashtami is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava ended at 18:29 Fri, when the lead reached 270°; Kaulava runs until 06:12.

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

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: Simha gives Bhadrapada. The Sun enters Kanya on 17 Sep, inside the month. The next new moon, 9 Oct, finds it in Kanya and begins Ashwina.

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 9 Oct, with the Sun in Kanya, begins Ashwina. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Ashwina here, and Bhadrapada in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 17 Mar 2037, 07:36 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 193.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2094; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1959.
