How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 6 May? Krishna Panchami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 232°: Krishna Panchami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 228°–240° is the 20th, Krishna Panchami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:12 here. Chaturthi ended at 21:21 Tue, before it. Panchami ends at 23:44, when the lead reaches 240°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 1 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.
Why does New Delhi read Chaturthi?
New Delhi reads Chaturthi, Cuenca reads Panchami.

What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 6 May? 04:36–05:24
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:36–05:24.
The night of Tue 5 May ran from sunset 18:12 Tue to sunrise 06:12, 12 h 0 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 6 May? 11:48–12:36
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:48–12:36.
Daylight here, 06:12 to 18:12, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:48–12:36: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 6 May?
06:12–07:42 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 06:12 to 18:12, 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, 18:12 to 06:12 Thu, 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.

When is Rahu Kaal on Wed 6 May? 12:12–13:42

Daylight here runs 06:12 to 18:12, 12 h 0 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 30 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.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 6 May? Purva Ashadha
At sunrise the Moon was at 253.7°: Purva Ashadha, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Purva Ashadha spans 253°20′–266°40′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 253°20′. It leaves at 08:15 Thu, for Uttara Ashadha.
Which yoga is it on Wed 6 May? Siddha
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 275.4°: Siddha.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 21.7° + 253.7° = 275.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 266°40′–280°00′ is the 21st, Siddha. It ends at 14:42, then Sadhya.
Which karana is it on Wed 6 May? Kaulava
At sunrise the lead was 232°: the first half of Panchami, Kaulava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Panchami is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava runs until 10:34, when the lead reaches 234°; Taitila until 23:44.
Which vara is Wed 6 May, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:12 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:12 to 06:12 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 6 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 17 Apr, with the Sun in Mesha: Vaishakha.
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: Mesha gives Vaishakha. The Sun enters Vrishabha on 14 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 16 May, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Wed 6 May in (purnimanta)? Jyeshtha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waning half already belongs to Jyeshtha.
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 16 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, begins Jyeshtha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Jyeshtha here, and Vaishakha in the amanta count.
Which samvat year is Wed 6 May in? Vikram 2083 · Shaka 1948
Vikram Samvat 2083 began at the Chaitra new moon of 18 Mar 2026.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 18 Mar 2026, 20:23 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 47.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.

What time is moonrise on Wed 6 May? 22:22
The Moon rises here at 22:22.
What time is moonset on Wed 6 May? 10:08
