Panchang in Codcod, Western Visayas, Philippines Tue 30 Sep 2042

The first shraddha of Pitru Paksha is done in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Pratipada runs from 18:34 on Mon 29 Sep to 14:51 on Tue 30 Sep, so it touches only Tuesday’s aparahna (12:49–15:13). No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.

Pitru Paksha begins: every date in Codcod

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 180°–192° is the 16th, Krishna Pratipada. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:35 here. Purnima ended at 18:34 Mon, before it. Pratipada ends at 14:51, when the lead reaches 192°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 29 Sep, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Mon 29 Sep ran from sunset 17:39 Mon to sunrise 05:35, 11 h 56 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 47 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:35 to 17:38, 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, 17:38 to 05:35 Wed, 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′. Revati spans 346°40′–360°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 346°40′. It leaves at 23:04, for Ashwini.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 162.4° + 348.9° = 511.3°, one full turn and 151.3°. 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 18:24, then Vyaghata.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Pratipada is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava ended at 04:42, when the lead reached 186°; Kaulava runs until 14:51.

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

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, 14 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 14 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: 22 Mar 2042, 01:23 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 185.6° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2099; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1964.
