How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 9 Jan? Shukla Dwitiya
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 13.9°: Shukla Dwitiya.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 12°–24° is the 2nd, Shukla Dwitiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:20 here. Pratipada ended at 01:04, before it. Dwitiya ends at 03:37 Sun, when the lead reaches 24°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 7 Jan, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sat 9 Jan? 03:58–04:39
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 03:58–04:39.
The night of Fri 8 Jan ran from sunset 19:02 Fri to sunrise 05:20, 10 h 18 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 41 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Sat 9 Jan? 11:44–12:39
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 11:44–12:39.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 9 Jan? 05:20–06:15
Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 05:20–06:15 and 06:15–07:10.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 9 Jan? 06:15–07:10
Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 05:20–06:15 and 06:15–07:10.
Daylight here, 05:20 to 19:02, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 54 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Saturday is the 1st and 2nd, 05:20–06:15 and 06:15–07:10.
Which choghadiya is good on Sat 9 Jan?
05:20–07:03 is Kala, ruled by Shani (Saturn), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 05:20 to 19:02, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 42 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 19:02 to 05:21 Sun, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 17 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

Daylight here runs 05:20 to 19:02, 13 h 42 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 42 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Saturday Rahu Kaal is the 3rd part, Yamaganda the 6th and Gulikai Kalam the 1st.

Which nakshatra is it on Sat 9 Jan? Uttara Ashadha
At sunrise the Moon was at 278.3°: Uttara Ashadha, pada 4.
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 4 at 276°40′. It leaves at 08:46, for Shravana.
Which yoga is it on Sat 9 Jan? Harshana
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 542.7°, one turn and 182.7°: Harshana.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 264.4° + 278.3° = 542.7°, one full turn and 182.7°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 173°20′–186°40′ is the 14th, Harshana. It ends at 12:45, then Vajra.
Which karana is it on Sat 9 Jan? Balava
At sunrise the lead was 13.9°: the first half of Dwitiya, Balava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwitiya is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava runs until 14:22, when the lead reaches 18°; Kaulava until 03:37 Sun.
Which vara is Sat 9 Jan, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 05:20 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:20 to 05:21 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 9 Jan in (amanta)? Pausha
This month began at the new moon of 7 Jan, with the Sun in Dhanu: Pausha.
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: Dhanu gives Pausha. The Sun enters Makara on 14 Jan, inside the month. The next new moon, 6 Feb, finds it in Makara and begins Magha.
Which Hindu month is Sat 9 Jan in (purnimanta)? Pausha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Pausha.
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 7 Jan, with the Sun in Dhanu, began Pausha. This Shukla paksha reads Pausha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sat 9 Jan in? Vikram 2083 · Shaka 1948
Vikram Samvat 2083 began at the Chaitra new moon of 19 Mar 2026.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 2026, 03:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 290.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
