How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 7 May? Shukla Chaturthi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 44.9°: 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, 05:46 here. Tritiya ended at 11:37 Fri, before it. Chaturthi ends at 12:03, when the lead reaches 48°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 3 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sat 7 May? 04:15–05:00
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:15–05:00.
The night of Fri 6 May ran from sunset 18:25 Fri to sunrise 05:46, 11 h 21 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Sat 7 May? 11:40–12:31
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 11:40–12:31.

Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 05:46–06:37 and 06:37–07:27.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 7 May? 06:37–07:27
Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 05:46–06:37 and 06:37–07:27.
Daylight here, 05:46 to 18:26, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Saturday is the 1st and 2nd, 05:46–06:37 and 06:37–07:27.
Which choghadiya is good on Sat 7 May?
05:46–07:21 is Kala, ruled by Shani (Saturn), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 05:46 to 18:26, 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, 18:26 to 05:45 Sun, 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.
Daylight in 8 parts

Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 3rd of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight: 08:56–10:31.

Daylight here runs 05:46 to 18:26, 12 h 40 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 35 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 7 May? Ardra
At sunrise the Moon was at 67.2°: Ardra, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Ardra spans 66°40′–80°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 66°40′. It leaves at 05:34 Sun, for Punarvasu.
Which yoga is it on Sat 7 May? Sukarma
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 89.5°: Sukarma.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 22.3° + 67.2° = 89.5°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 80°00′–93°20′ is the 7th, Sukarma. It ends at 12:29, then Dhriti.
Which karana is it on Sat 7 May? Vishti
At sunrise the lead was 44.9°: 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 23:53 Fri, when the lead reached 42°; Vishti runs until 12:03.
Which vara is Sat 7 May, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 05:46 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:46 to 05:45 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 7 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 Sat 7 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 Sat 7 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 32.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2068; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1933.

What time is moonrise on Sat 7 May? 09:00
