How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Tue 12 May? Krishna Dashami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 297.6°: Krishna Dashami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 288°–300° is the 25th, Krishna Dashami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:44 here. Navami ended at 10:55 Mon, before it. Dashami ends at 10:22, when the lead reaches 300°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 1 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Tue 12 May? 04:14–04:59
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:14–04:59.
The night of Mon 11 May ran from sunset 18:27 Mon to sunrise 05:44, 11 h 17 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 Tue 12 May? 11:40–12:31
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 11:40–12:31.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 12 May? 08:17–09:08
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 08:17–09:08, and the 7th of the night's 15, 22:58–23:43.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 12 May? 22:58–23:43
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 08:17–09:08, and the 7th of the night's 15, 22:58–23:43.
Daylight here, 05:44 to 18:27, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Tuesday is the 4th and the night's 7th, 08:17–09:08 and 22:58–23:43.
Which choghadiya is good on Tue 12 May?
05:44–07:19 is Roga, ruled by Mangala (Mars), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 05:44 to 18:27, 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, 18:27 to 05:44 Wed, 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
When is Rahu Kaal on Tue 12 May? 15:16–16:52
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 7th of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight: 15:16–16:52.
When is Yamagandam on Tue 12 May? 08:55–10:30
Yamaganda is the 3rd of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight: 08:55–10:30.
When is Gulika Kalam on Tue 12 May? 12:06–13:41
Gulikai Kalam is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight: 12:06–13:41.
Daylight here runs 05:44 to 18:27, 12 h 43 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 35 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Tuesday Rahu Kaal is the 7th part, Yamaganda the 3rd and Gulikai Kalam the 5th.

Day here: sunrise 05:44, sunset 18:27, 12 h 43 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Tue 12 May? 18:27
Day here: sunrise 05:44, sunset 18:27, 12 h 43 m of daylight.

Which nakshatra is it on Tue 12 May? Purva Bhadrapada
At sunrise the Moon was at 324.9°: Purva Bhadrapada, pada 2.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Purva Bhadrapada spans 320°00′–333°20′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 323°20′. It leaves at 20:47, for Uttara Bhadrapada.
Which yoga is it on Tue 12 May? Vaidhriti
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 352.2°: Vaidhriti.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 27.3° + 324.9° = 352.2°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 346°40′–360°00′ is the 27th, Vaidhriti. It ends at 18:49, then Vishkambha.
Which karana is it on Tue 12 May? Vishti
At sunrise the lead was 297.6°: the second half of Dashami, Vishti.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dashami is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 22:45 Mon, when the lead reached 294°; Vishti runs until 10:22.
Which vara is Tue 12 May, and from when? Mangalawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:44 on Tuesday: Mangalawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:44 to 05:44 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.
Which Hindu month is Tue 12 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 17 Apr, 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, 16 May, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Tue 12 May in (purnimanta)? Jyeshtha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waning half already belongs to Jyeshtha.
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 16 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, begins Jyeshtha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Jyeshtha here, and Vaishakha in the amanta count.
Which samvat year is Tue 12 May in? Vikram 2083 · Shaka 1948
Vikram Samvat 2083 began at the Chaitra new moon of 19 Mar 2026.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 2026, 02:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 53.1° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.

What time is moonrise on Tue 12 May? 02:44 Wed
The Moon rises here at 02:44 Wed.
What time is moonset on Tue 12 May? 14:21
The Moon was up at sunrise and set at 14:21; it rises again at 02:44 Wed, so this day's moonrise falls in its night.
