Panchang in Devakottai, Tamil Nadu Mon 15 Jun 2026

Amavasya follows the tithi at sunrise. Amavasya runs from 12:20 on Sun 14 Jun to 08:24 on Mon 15 Jun, so it holds sunrise only on Mon 15 Jun, at 05:54. No text giving Amavasya’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.

Amavasya: every date in Devakottai

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 348°–360° is the 30th, Krishna Amavasya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:54 here. Chaturdashi ended at 12:20 Sun, before it. Amavasya ends at 08:24, when the lead reaches 360°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 31 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Pratipada began at 08:24 and ended at 04:31 Tue, between the sunrises of 05:54 and 05:54 Tue. Monday reads Amavasya and Tuesday reads Dwitiya: Pratipada is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Sun 14 Jun ran from sunset 18:36 Sun to sunrise 05:54, 11 h 18 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:54 to 18:36, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 35 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:36 to 05:54 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 24 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′. Mrigashira spans 53°20′–66°40′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 56°40′. It leaves at 19:08, for Ardra.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 59.7° + 58.2° = 117.9°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 106°40′–120°00′ is the 9th, Shula. It ends at 08:55, then Ganda.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Amavasya is Chatushpada and the second Nagava. Chatushpada ended at 22:22 Sun, when the lead reached 354°; Nagava runs until 08:24.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:54 to 05:54 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 17 May 01:31 Sun to 15 Jun 08:24 the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 15 Jun 12:52, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Jyeshtha, before Jyeshtha itself.

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 15 Jun, with the Sun in Vrishabha, begins Jyeshtha (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) here, and Jyeshtha (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 2026, 06:53 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 85.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
