How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 12 Jan? Shukla Chaturthi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 44.6°: Shukla Chaturthi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 36°–48° is the 4th, Shukla Chaturthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:35 here. Tritiya ended at 13:38 Fri, before it. Chaturthi ends at 13:12, when the lead reaches 48°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 8 Jan, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sat 12 Jan? 04:54–05:45
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:54–05:45.
The night of Fri 11 Jan ran from sunset 17:59 Fri to sunrise 06:35, 12 h 36 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Sat 12 Jan? 11:54–12:40
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 11:54–12:40.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 12 Jan? 06:35–07:21
Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 06:35–07:21 and 07:21–08:06.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 12 Jan? 07:21–08:06
Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 06:35–07:21 and 07:21–08:06.
Daylight here, 06:35 to 17:59, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Saturday is the 1st and 2nd, 06:35–07:21 and 07:21–08:06.
Which choghadiya is good on Sat 12 Jan?
06:35–08:01 is Kala, ruled by Shani (Saturn), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 06:35 to 17:59, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 25 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 17:59 to 06:35 Sun, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 34 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 Sat 12 Jan? 09:26–10:52
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 3rd of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight: 09:26–10:52.
When is Yamagandam on Sat 12 Jan? 13:43–15:08

Gulikai Kalam is the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight: 06:35–08:01.
Daylight here runs 06:35 to 17:59, 11 h 24 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 25 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 12 Jan? Shatabhisha
At sunrise the Moon was at 312°: Shatabhisha, pada 2.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Shatabhisha spans 306°40′–320°00′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 310°. It leaves at 20:57, for Purva Bhadrapada.
Which yoga is it on Sat 12 Jan? Vyatipata
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 579.4°, one turn and 219.4°: Vyatipata.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 267.4° + 312° = 579.4°, one full turn and 219.4°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 18:42, then Variyana.
Which karana is it on Sat 12 Jan? Vishti
At sunrise the lead was 44.6°: the second half of Chaturthi, Vishti.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturthi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 01:28, when the lead reached 42°; Vishti runs until 13:12.
Which vara is Sat 12 Jan, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 06:35 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:35 to 06:35 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 12 Jan in (amanta)? Pausha
This month began at the new moon of 8 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, 7 Feb, finds it in Makara and begins Magha.
Which Hindu month is Sat 12 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 8 Jan, with the Sun in Dhanu, began Pausha. This Shukla paksha reads Pausha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sat 12 Jan in? Vikram 2064 · Shaka 1929
Vikram Samvat 2064 began at the Chaitra new moon of 19 Mar 2007.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 2007, 03:42 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 293.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2064; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1929.
