How each value is worked out

Which tithi is on Tue 15 Dec? Shukla Shashthi

At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 67.2°: Shukla Shashthi.

Sun New moon 0° 67.2° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Shashthi 60°–72° Full moon 180°
Sun New moon 0° 67.2° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Shashthi 60°–72° 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: 60°–72° is the 6th, Shukla Shashthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:24 here. Panchami ended at 14:46 Mon, before it. Shashthi ends at 16:49, when the lead reaches 72°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

What time is Brahma Muhurta on Tue 15 Dec? 04:42–05:33

Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:42–05:33.

Which nakshatra is it on Tue 15 Dec? Dhanishtha

At sunrise the Moon was at 306.2°: Dhanishtha, pada 4.

Moon Sun 0° Dhanishtha Moon 306.2° next: Shatabhisha Earth
Moon Sun 0° Dhanishtha Moon 306.2° next: Shatabhisha 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′. Dhanishtha spans 293°20′–306°40′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 303°20′. It leaves at 07:23, for Shatabhisha.

Which yoga is it on Tue 15 Dec? Harshana

At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 545.2°, one turn and 185.2°: Harshana.

Sun 239.0° + Moon 306.2° = 545.2° one turn + 185.2° Harshana 173°20′–186°40′ Moon Sun 0°
Sun 239.0° + Moon 306.2° = 545.2° one turn + 185.2° Harshana 173°20′–186°40′ 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: 239° + 306.2° = 545.2°, one full turn and 185.2°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 173°20′–186°40′ is the 14th, Harshana. It ends at 09:07, then Vajra.

Which karana is it on Tue 15 Dec? Taitila

At sunrise the lead was 67.2°: the second half of Shashthi, Taitila.

Sun New moon 0° 67.2° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Shashthi 60°–72° Taitila 66°–72° Full moon 180°
Sun New moon 0° 67.2° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Shashthi 60°–72° Taitila 66°–72° 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 Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava ended at 03:52, when the lead reached 66°; Taitila runs until 16:49.

Which vara is Tue 15 Dec, and from when? Mangalawara

This day began at sunrise, 06:24 on Tuesday: Mangalawara.

Mangalawara Sunrise 06:24 Sunset 17:45 Sunrise 06:24 Wed time, not height still Mangalawara 00:00 Wed
Mangalawara Sunrise 06:24 Sunset 17:45 Sunrise 06:24 Wed time, not height still Mangalawara 00:00 Wed
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 06:24 to 06:24 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.

Which Hindu month is Tue 15 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha

This month began at the new moon of 9 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika: Margashirsha.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Vrishchika 10 11 12 0° Earth Dhanu
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Vrishchika 10 11 12 0° Earth Dhanu
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: Vrishchika gives Margashirsha. The Sun enters Dhanu on 16 Dec, inside the month. The next new moon, 7 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.

Which Hindu month is Tue 15 Dec in (purnimanta)? Margashirsha

Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Margashirsha.

Amanta Purnimanta Margashirsha Margashirsha Krishna Shukla Tue 15 Dec Full moon 24 Nov New moon 9 Dec Full moon 24 Dec New moon 7 Jan
Amanta Purnimanta Margashirsha Margashirsha Krishna Shukla Tue 15 Dec Full moon 24 Nov New moon 9 Dec Full moon 24 Dec New moon 7 Jan
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 9 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.

Which samvat year is Tue 15 Dec in? Vikram 2083 · Shaka 1948

Vikram Samvat 2083 began at the Chaitra new moon of 19 Mar 2026.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 Meena 0° Earth Chaitra new moon 19 Mar 2026 02:23 · Sun in Meena Sunrise, Tue 15 Dec Sun at 239.0°
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: 19 Mar 2026, 02:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 264.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
