How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 16 Dec? Shukla Dwadashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 132.2°: Shukla Dwadashi.
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, 05:57 here. Ekadashi ended at 05:27, before it. Dwadashi ends at 07:17 Thu, when the lead reaches 144°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 5 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does Dwadashi hold two sunrises?
Dwadashi holds the sunrises of both Wed 16 and Thu 17 Dec here.
A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Dwadashi began at 05:27, before sunrise at 05:57, and ends at 07:17 Thu, after the next sunrise at 05:57 Thu. Both days read Dwadashi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 16 Dec? 04:17–05:07
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:17–05:07.
The night of Tue 15 Dec ran from sunset 17:27 Tue to sunrise 05:57, 12 h 30 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 16 Dec? 11:19–12:05
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:19–12:05.
Daylight here, 05:57 to 17:28, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 46 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:19–12:05: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 16 Dec?
05:57–07:23 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 05:57 to 17:28, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 26 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 17:28 to 05:57 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 33 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
Daylight in 8 parts
When is Rahu Kaal on Wed 16 Dec? 11:42–13:09
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 11:42–13:09.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 16 Dec? 07:23–08:50
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 07:23–08:50.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 16 Dec? 10:16–11:42
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 10:16–11:42.
Daylight here runs 05:57 to 17:28, 11 h 31 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 26 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Wednesday Rahu Kaal is the 5th part, Yamaganda the 2nd and Gulikai Kalam the 4th.
Sunrise and sunset
What time is sunrise on Wed 16 Dec? 05:57
Day here: sunrise 05:57, sunset 17:28, 11 h 31 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 16 Dec? 17:28
Day here: sunrise 05:57, sunset 17:28, 11 h 31 m of daylight.
Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 11 h 31 m and the night until the next sunrise 12 h 29 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 16 Dec? Ashwini
At sunrise the Moon was at 12.3°: Ashwini, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Ashwini spans 0°00′–13°20′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 10°. It leaves at 07:58, for Bharani.
Which yoga is it on Wed 16 Dec? Parigha
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 252.4°: Parigha.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 240.1° + 12.3° = 252.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 240°00′–253°20′ is the 19th, Parigha. It ends at 07:42, then Shiva.
Which karana is it on Wed 16 Dec? Bava
At sunrise the lead was 132.2°: the first half of Dwadashi, Bava.
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 runs until 18:19, when the lead reaches 138°; Balava until 07:17 Thu.
Which vara is Wed 16 Dec, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:57 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:57 to 05:57 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 16 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 5 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika: Margashirsha.
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: Vrishchika gives Margashirsha. The Sun enters Dhanu on 16 Dec, inside the month. The next new moon, 4 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.
Which Hindu month is Wed 16 Dec in (purnimanta)? Margashirsha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Margashirsha.
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 5 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 16 Dec in? Vikram 2105 · Shaka 1970
Vikram Samvat 2105 began at the Chaitra new moon of 14 Mar 2048.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 14 Mar 2048, 22:27 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 269.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2105; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1970.

What time is moonrise on Wed 16 Dec? 14:21
