Panchang in Codcod, Western Visayas, Philippines Mon 23 Feb 2093

Shiva’s Pradosh puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Trayodashi runs from 06:48 on Mon 23 Feb to 04:06 on Tue 24 Feb, so only Monday’s pradosha (17:56–20:22) 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: 312°–324° is the 27th, Krishna Dwadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:04 here. Ekadashi ended at 09:30 Sun, before it. Dwadashi ends at 06:48, when the lead reaches 324°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 11 Feb, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Trayodashi began at 06:48 and ended at 04:06 Tue, between the sunrises of 06:04 and 06:03 Tue. Monday reads Dwadashi and Tuesday reads Chaturdashi: Trayodashi is a kshaya tithi here.

Sunrise here, 06:04, came before Dwadashi ended at 06:48: this day reads Dwadashi. Trayodashi ends at 04:06 Tue, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Trayodashi: it is kshaya.

The night of Sun 22 Feb ran from sunset 17:56 Sun to sunrise 06:04, 12 h 8 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:04 to 17:56, 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, 17:56 to 06:03 Tue, 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 Ashadha spans 266°40′–280°00′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 273°20′. It leaves at 16:51, for Shravana.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 309.9° + 273.5° = 583.4°, one full turn and 223.4°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 11:11, then Variyana.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwadashi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava ended at 20:10 Sun, when the lead reached 318°; Taitila runs until 06:48.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:04 to 06:03 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.

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: Makara gives Magha. The Sun enters Kumbha on 13 Feb, inside the month. The next new moon, 25 Feb, finds it in Kumbha and begins Phalguna.

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 25 Feb, with the Sun in Kumbha, begins Phalguna. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Phalguna here, and Magha in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 7 Apr 2092, 05:42 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 316.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2149; Shaka Samvat numbers it 2014.
