How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 14 Aug? Shukla Shashthi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 71.2°: Shukla Shashthi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 60°–72° is the 6th, Shukla Shashthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:56 here. Panchami ended at 09:13 Fri, before it. Shashthi ends at 07:21, when the lead reaches 72°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 8 Aug, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why is Saptami skipped here?
Saptami began after one sunrise and ended before the next, so no day here reads Saptami.
A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Saptami began at 07:21 and ended at 05:21 Sun, between the sunrises of 05:56 and 05:57 Sun. Saturday reads Shashthi and Sunday reads Ashtami: Saptami is a kshaya tithi here.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sat 14 Aug? 04:25–05:11
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:25–05:11.
The night of Fri 13 Aug ran from sunset 18:31 Fri to sunrise 05:56, 11 h 25 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Which nakshatra is it on Sat 14 Aug? Swati
At sunrise the Moon was at 188.7°: Swati, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Swati spans 186°40′–200°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 186°40′. It leaves at 01:14 Sun, for Vishakha.
Which yoga is it on Sat 14 Aug? Shubha
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 306.2°: Shubha.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 117.5° + 188.7° = 306.2°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 293°20′–306°40′ is the 23rd, Shubha. It ends at 06:41, then Shukla.
Which karana is it on Sat 14 Aug? Taitila
At sunrise the lead was 71.2°: the second half of Shashthi, Taitila.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Shashthi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava ended at 20:18 Fri, when the lead reached 66°; Taitila runs until 07:21.
Which vara is Sat 14 Aug, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 05:56 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:56 to 05:57 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 14 Aug in (amanta)? Shravana
This month began at the new moon of 8 Aug, with the Sun in Karka: Shravana.
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: Karka gives Shravana. The Sun enters Simha on 16 Aug, inside the month. The next new moon, 7 Sep, finds it in Simha and begins Bhadrapada.
Which Hindu month is Sat 14 Aug in (purnimanta)? Shravana
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Shravana.
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 Aug, with the Sun in Karka, began Shravana. This Shukla paksha reads Shravana in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sat 14 Aug in? Vikram 2078 · Shaka 1943
Vikram Samvat 2078 began at the Chaitra new moon of 12 Apr 2021.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 12 Apr 2021, 03:30 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 119.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2078; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1943.
Moonrise and moonset
What time is moonrise on Sat 14 Aug? 11:06
The Moon rises here at 11:06.
What time is moonset on Sat 14 Aug? 23:06
The Moon was down at sunrise and rises at 11:06, in this day's daylight; it sets again at 23:06.
