How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 13 May? Krishna Dwadashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 313.7°: Krishna Dwadashi.
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, 06:12 here. Ekadashi ended at 03:00, before it. Dwadashi ends at 00:51 Thu, when the lead reaches 324°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 1 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.
Why does New Delhi read Ekadashi?
New Delhi reads Ekadashi, Cuenca reads Dwadashi.
A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.
New Delhi · IST
Sunrise here, 05:31, came before Ekadashi ended at 13:30: this day reads Ekadashi.
Cuenca · UTC−5
Sunrise here, 06:12, came after Ekadashi ended at 03:00: this day reads Dwadashi.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 13 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 12 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 13 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 18:11, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 47 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 13 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 18:11, 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, 18:11 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.
Daylight in 8 parts
When is Rahu Kaal on Wed 13 May? 12:12–13:42
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:12–13:42.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 13 May? 07:42–09:12
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 07:42–09:12.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 13 May? 10:42–12:12
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 10:42–12:12.
Daylight here runs 06:12 to 18:11, 11 h 59 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 29 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 13 May? Uttara Bhadrapada
At sunrise the Moon was at 342.2°: Uttara Bhadrapada, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Uttara Bhadrapada spans 333°20′–346°40′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 340°. It leaves at 13:47, for Revati.
Which yoga is it on Wed 13 May? Vishkambha
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 370.7°, one turn and 10.7°: Vishkambha.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 28.5° + 342.2° = 370.7°, one full turn and 10.7°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 0°00′–13°20′ is the 1st, Vishkambha. It ends at 10:24, then Priti.
Which karana is it on Wed 13 May? Kaulava
At sunrise the lead was 313.7°: the first half of Dwadashi, Kaulava.
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 runs until 14:01, when the lead reaches 318°; Taitila until 00:51 Thu.
Which vara is Wed 13 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 13 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 13 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 13 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 54.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.

What time is moonrise on Wed 13 May? 03:56 Thu

What time is moonset on Wed 13 May? 15:26
