Panchang in Dhing, Assam Fri 1 Oct 2027

Ghatasthapana is done in pratahkala, the first fifth of the day. Pratipada runs from 08:06 on Thu 30 Sep to 05:35 on Fri 1 Oct, so it touches only Friday’s pratahkala (05:12–07:35).

Sharad Navratri: every date in Dhing

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 0°–12° is the 1st, Shukla Pratipada. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:12 here. Amavasya ended at 08:06 Thu, before it. Pratipada ends at 05:35, when the lead reaches 12°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 30 Sep, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Dwitiya began at 05:35 and ended at 03:33 Sat, between the sunrises of 05:12 and 05:12 Sat. Friday reads Pratipada and Saturday reads Tritiya: Dwitiya is a kshaya tithi here.

Sunrise here, 06:13, came after Pratipada ended at 05:35: this day reads Dwitiya.

Dhing · IST

Sunrise here, 05:12, came before Pratipada ended at 05:35: this day reads Pratipada. Dwitiya ends at 03:33 Sat, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Dwitiya: it is kshaya.

The night of Thu 30 Sep ran from sunset 17:08 Thu to sunrise 05:12, 12 h 4 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:12 to 17:07, 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, 17:07 to 05:12 Sat, 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 fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Chitra spans 173°20′–186°40′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 173°20′. It leaves at 00:49 Sat, for Swati.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 163.3° + 175.1° = 338.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 333°20′–346°40′ is the 26th, Indra. It ends at 18:11, then Vaidhriti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Pratipada is Kinstughna and the second Bava. Kinstughna ended at 18:47 Thu, when the lead reached 6°; Bava runs until 05:35.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:12 to 05:12 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: Kanya gives Ashwina. The Sun enters Tula on 18 Oct, inside the month. The next new moon, 29 Oct, finds it in Tula and begins Kartika.

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 30 Sep, with the Sun in Kanya, began Ashwina. This Shukla paksha reads Ashwina in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 7 Apr 2027, 05:21 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 170.6° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2084; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1949.
