How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Thu 5 May? Shukla Dwitiya
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 21.6°: 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, 05:47 here. Pratipada ended at 09:28 Wed, before it. Dwitiya ends at 10:44, when the lead reaches 24°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 3 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Thu 5 May? 04:16–05:01
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:16–05:01.
The night of Wed 4 May ran from sunset 18:25 Wed to sunrise 05:47, 11 h 22 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas

Dur Muhurtam is the 6th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 09:59–10:50 and 15:03–15:54.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Thu 5 May? 15:03–15:54
Dur Muhurtam is the 6th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 09:59–10:50 and 15:03–15:54.
Daylight here, 05:47 to 18:25, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Thursday is the 6th and 12th, 09:59–10:50 and 15:03–15:54.
Which choghadiya is good on Thu 5 May?
05:47–07:21 is Shubha, ruled by Guru (Jupiter), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 05:47 to 18:25, 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.
The night here, 18:25 to 05:46 Fri, 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.

Daylight here runs 05:47 to 18:25, 12 h 38 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 34 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Thursday Rahu Kaal is the 6th part, Yamaganda the 1st and Gulikai Kalam the 3rd.

Which nakshatra is it on Thu 5 May? Rohini
At sunrise the Moon was at 42°: Rohini, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Rohini spans 40°00′–53°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 40°. It leaves at 03:35 Fri, for Mrigashira.
Which yoga is it on Thu 5 May? Shobhana
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 62.4°: Shobhana.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 20.4° + 42° = 62.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 53°20′–66°40′ is the 5th, Shobhana. It ends at 13:32, then Atiganda.
Which karana is it on Thu 5 May? Kaulava
At sunrise the lead was 21.6°: the second half of Dwitiya, Kaulava.
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 ended at 22:09 Wed, when the lead reached 18°; Kaulava runs until 10:44.
Which vara is Thu 5 May, and from when? Guruwara
This day began at sunrise, 05:47 on Thursday: Guruwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:47 to 05:46 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.
Which Hindu month is Thu 5 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 3 May, with the Sun in Mesha: Vaishakha.
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: Mesha gives Vaishakha. The Sun enters Vrishabha on 15 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 1 Jun, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Thu 5 May in (purnimanta)? Vaishakha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Vaishakha.
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 3 May, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha. This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Thu 5 May in? Vikram 2068 · Shaka 1933
Vikram Samvat 2068 began at the Chaitra new moon of 3 Apr 2011.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 3 Apr 2011, 15:32 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 30.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2068; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1933.

What time is moonrise on Thu 5 May? 07:14
