How each value is worked out

Which tithi is on Wed 23 Mar? Krishna Shashthi

At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 243.5°: Krishna Shashthi.

Sun New moon 0° 243.5° Moon's lead Krishna Shukla Shashthi 240°–252° Full moon 180°
Sun New moon 0° 243.5° Moon's lead Krishna Shukla Shashthi 240°–252° Full moon 180°
Earth at the centre · Sun fixed at the top · Moon moves counter-clockwise · not to scale

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 240°–252° is the 21st, Krishna Shashthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:11 here. Panchami ended at 23:52 Tue, before it. Shashthi ends at 21:46, when the lead reaches 252°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 18 Mar, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 23 Mar? 04:37–05:24

Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:37–05:24.

Sunset 18:20 Tue Sunrise 06:11 Wed time, not height Tue 22 Mar daylight 14 1
Sunset 18:20 Tue Sunrise 06:11 Wed time, not height Tue 22 Mar daylight 1
Night below the line, in 15 muhurtas, clockwise from sunset · Tuesday's daylight dimmed

The night of Tue 22 Mar ran from sunset 18:20 Tue to sunrise 06:11, 11 h 51 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 47 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight in 15 muhurtas

When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 23 Mar? 11:51–12:40

Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:51–12:40.

Sunrise 06:11 Sunset 18:20 Sunrise 06:11 Thu time, not height 8 1
Sunrise 06:11 Sunset 18:20 Sunrise 06:11 Thu time, not height 8 1
Day above the line, night below · clockwise from sunrise

Daylight here, 06:11 to 18:20, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:51–12:40: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.

Which choghadiya is good on Wed 23 Mar?

06:11–07:42 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.

Sunrise 06:11 Sunset 18:20 Sunrise 06:11 Thu time, not height Labha
Sunrise 06:11 Sunset 18:20 Sunrise 06:11 Thu time, not height Labha
Day above the line, night below · clockwise from sunrise

Daylight here, 06:11 to 18:20, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 31 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:20 to 06:11 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 28 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 Wed 23 Mar? 12:16–13:47

Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:16–13:47.

When is Yamagandam on Wed 23 Mar? 07:42–09:14

Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 07:42–09:14.

When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 23 Mar? 10:45–12:16

Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 10:45–12:16.

Sunrise 06:11 Sunset 18:20 Sunrise 06:11 Thu time, not height 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Sunrise 06:11 Sunset 18:20 Sunrise 06:11 Thu time, not height 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Day above the line, night below · clockwise from sunrise · dashed: Yamaganda 2, Gulikai Kalam 4

Daylight here runs 06:11 to 18:20, 12 h 9 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 31 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Wednesday Rahu Kaal is the 5th part, Yamaganda the 2nd and Gulikai Kalam the 4th.

Sunrise and sunset

What time is sunrise on Wed 23 Mar? 06:11

Day here: sunrise 06:11, sunset 18:20, 12 h 9 m of daylight.

What time is sunset on Wed 23 Mar? 18:20

Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 12 h 9 m and the night until the next sunrise 11 h 51 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 23 Mar? Anuradha

At sunrise the Moon was at 221.9°: Anuradha, pada 3.

Moon Sun 0° Anuradha Moon 221.9° next: Jyeshtha Earth
Moon Sun 0° Anuradha Moon 221.9° next: Jyeshtha Earth
Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · 0° at the top, counter-clockwise

The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Anuradha spans 213°20′–226°40′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 220°. It leaves at 14:22, for Jyeshtha.

Which yoga is it on Wed 23 Mar? Siddhi

At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 560.3°, one turn and 200.3°: Siddhi.

Sun 338.4° + Moon 221.9° = 560.3° one turn + 200.3° Siddhi 200°00′–213°20′ Moon Sun 0°
Sun 338.4° + Moon 221.9° = 560.3° one turn + 200.3° Siddhi 200°00′–213°20′ Moon Sun 0°
Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · 0° at the top, counter-clockwise

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 338.4° + 221.9° = 560.3°, one full turn and 200.3°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 200°00′–213°20′ is the 16th, Siddhi. It ends at 02:58 Thu, then Vyatipata.

Which karana is it on Wed 23 Mar? Garaja

At sunrise the lead was 243.5°: the first half of Shashthi, Garaja.

Sun New moon 0° 243.5° Moon's lead Krishna Shukla Shashthi 240°–252° Garaja 240°–246° Full moon 180°
Sun New moon 0° 243.5° Moon's lead Krishna Shukla Shashthi 240°–252° Garaja 240°–246° Full moon 180°
Earth at the centre · Sun fixed at the top · Moon moves counter-clockwise · each 12° tithi halved into karanas · not to scale

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Shashthi is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja runs until 10:49, when the lead reaches 246°; Vanija until 21:46.

Which vara is Wed 23 Mar, and from when? Budhawara

This day began at sunrise, 06:11 on Wednesday: Budhawara.

Budhawara Sunrise 06:11 Sunset 18:20 Sunrise 06:11 Thu time, not height 00:00 Thu still Budhawara
Budhawara Sunrise 06:11 Sunset 18:20 Sunrise 06:11 Thu time, not height 00:00 Thu still Budhawara
One turn of the wheel is one vara, sunrise to sunrise · clockwise

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:11 to 06:11 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

Which Hindu month is Wed 23 Mar in (amanta)? Phalguna

This month began at the new moon of 2 Mar, with the Sun in Kumbha: Phalguna.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Kumbha Meena 0° Earth
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Kumbha Meena 0° Earth
Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · ring: the Sun's yearly path in 12 rashis of 30°, numbered from 0° · Sun's path from new moon to new moon

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: Kumbha gives Phalguna. The Sun enters Meena on 14 Mar, inside the month. The next new moon, 1 Apr, finds it in Meena and begins Chaitra.

Which Hindu month is Wed 23 Mar in (purnimanta)? Chaitra

Counted full moon to full moon, this waning half already belongs to Chaitra.

Amanta Chaitra Purnimanta Phalguna Krishna Shukla Wed 23 Mar New moon 2 Mar Full moon 18 Mar New moon 1 Apr Full moon 16 Apr
Amanta Chaitra Purnimanta Phalguna Krishna Shukla Wed 23 Mar New moon 2 Mar Full moon 18 Mar New moon 1 Apr Full moon 16 Apr
Time runs left to right · amanta: new moon to new moon · purnimanta: full moon to full moon

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 1 Apr, with the Sun in Meena, begins Chaitra. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Chaitra here, and Phalguna in the amanta count.

Which samvat year is Wed 23 Mar in? Vikram 2078 · Shaka 1943

Vikram Samvat 2078 began at the Chaitra new moon of 12 Apr 2021.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 Meena 0° Earth Chaitra new moon 12 Apr 2021 03:30 · Sun in Meena Sunrise, Wed 23 Mar Sun at 338.4°
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 Meena 0° Earth Chaitra new moon 12 Apr 2021 03:30 · Sun in Meena Sunrise, Wed 23 Mar Sun at 338.4°
Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · ring: the Sun's yearly path in 12 rashis of 30°, numbered from 0° · Sun's path since the year began

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 340.1° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2078; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1943.

Moonrise and moonset

What time is moonrise on Wed 23 Mar? 23:28

The Moon rises here at 23:28.

What time is moonset on Wed 23 Mar? 10:08

Sunrise 06:11 Sunset 18:20 Sunrise 06:11 Thu time, not height Moonset 10:08 Moonrise 23:28
Day above the line, night below · clockwise from sunrise · inner arc: Moon above the horizon, two passes

The Moon was up at sunrise and set at 10:08; it rises again at 23:28, so this day's moonrise falls in its night.
