Panchang in Davinópolis, Maranhão, Brazil Fri 17 Jun 2022

The Sankashti fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 21:41 on Thu 16 Jun to 18:30 on Fri 17 Jun, between the two nights’ moonrise, touching neither. The Dharmasindhu then takes the later day: Fri 17 Jun. No text giving Sankashti Chaturthi’s time was found; moonrise is Tithika’s convention.

Sankashti Chaturthi: every date in Davinópolis

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 216°–228° is the 19th, Krishna Chaturthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:16 here. Tritiya ended at 21:41 Thu, before it. Chaturthi ends at 18:30, when the lead reaches 228°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 14 Jun, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

Sunrise here, 05:23, came before Tritiya ended at 06:11: this day reads Tritiya. Chaturthi ends at 03:00 Sat, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Chaturthi: it is kshaya.

Sunrise here, 06:16, came after Tritiya ended at 21:41 Thu: this day reads Chaturthi.

The night of Thu 16 Jun ran from sunset 18:04 Thu to sunrise 06:16, 12 h 12 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:16 to 18:04, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 28 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:04 to 06:16 Sat, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 31 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′. Shravana spans 280°00′–293°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 280°. It leaves at 23:09, for Dhanishtha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 62° + 283° = 345°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 333°20′–346°40′ is the 26th, Indra. It ends at 08:47, then Vaidhriti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturthi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava runs until 08:02, when the lead reaches 222°; Balava until 18:30.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:16 to 06:16 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: Vrishabha gives Jyeshtha. The Sun enters Mithuna on 15 Jun, inside the month. The next new moon, 28 Jun, finds it in Mithuna and begins Ashadha.

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 28 Jun, with the Sun in Mithuna, begins Ashadha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Ashadha here, and Jyeshtha in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 1 Apr 2022, 03:24 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 74.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2079; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1944.
