Panchang in Codcod, Western Visayas, Philippines Fri 1 Jan 2083

Shiva’s Pradosh puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Trayodashi runs from 06:29 on Fri 1 Jan to 08:17 on Sat 2 Jan, so only Friday’s pradosha (17:36–20:06) 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, 06:04 here. Ekadashi ended at 04:17 Thu, before it. Dwadashi ends at 06:29, when the lead reaches 144°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 19 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Dwadashi began at 04:17 Thu, before sunrise at 06:04 Thu, and ends at 06:29, after the next sunrise at 06:04. Both days read Dwadashi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Thu 31 Dec ran from sunset 17:35 Thu to sunrise 06:04, 12 h 29 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 49 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:04 to 17:36, 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, 17:36 to 06:05 Sat, 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.

The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Krittika spans 26°40′–40°00′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 36°40′. It leaves at 07:10, for Rohini.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 255.6° + 39.4° = 295°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 293°20′–306°40′ is the 23rd, Shubha. It ends at 03:10 Sat, then Shukla.

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 17:26 Thu, when the lead reached 138°; Balava runs until 06:29.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:04 to 06:05 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.

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: Dhanu gives Pausha. The Sun enters Makara on 15 Jan, inside the month. The next new moon, 18 Jan, finds it in Makara and begins Magha.

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 19 Dec, with the Sun in Dhanu, began Pausha. This Shukla paksha reads Pausha in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 29 Mar 2082, 17:06 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 271.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2139; Shaka Samvat numbers it 2004.
