Panchang in Codcod, Western Visayas, Philippines Sun 16 Oct 2039

Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 07:23 on Sun 16 Oct to 05:30 on Mon 17 Oct, so only Sunday night’s nishitha (23:08–23:57) falls within it. No text giving Masik Shivratri’s time was found; nishitha is Tithika’s convention.

Masik Shivratri: every date in Codcod

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 324°–336° is the 28th, Krishna Trayodashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:36 here. Dwadashi ended at 08:38 Sat, before it. Trayodashi ends at 07:23, when the lead reaches 336°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 2 Oct, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Chaturdashi began at 07:23 and ended at 05:30 Mon, between the sunrises of 05:36 and 05:36 Mon. Sunday reads Trayodashi and Monday reads Amavasya: Chaturdashi is a kshaya tithi here.

Codcod · UTC+8

Sunrise here, 05:36, came before Trayodashi ended at 07:23: this day reads Trayodashi. Chaturdashi ends at 05:30 Mon, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Chaturdashi: it is kshaya.

The night of Sat 15 Oct ran from sunset 17:30 Sat to sunrise 05:36, 12 h 6 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:36 to 17:29, 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 night here, 17:29 to 05:36 Mon, 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 fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Uttara Phalguni spans 146°40′–160°00′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 150°. It leaves at 17:38, for Hasta.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 178° + 153° = 331°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 320°00′–333°20′ is the 25th, Brahma. It ends at 09:21, then Indra.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Trayodashi is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja ended at 20:06 Sat, when the lead reached 330°; Vanija runs until 07:23.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:36 to 05:36 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 18 Sep 16:23 Sun to 18 Oct 03:09 Tue the Sun stayed in Kanya, entering Tula at 18 Oct 06:25 Tue, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Ashwina, before Ashwina itself.

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 18 Oct, with the Sun in Kanya, begins Ashwina (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Ashwina (Adhik) here, and Ashwina (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 25 Mar 2039, 01:59 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 198.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2096; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1961.
