How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Tue 22 Dec? Shukla Trayodashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 154°: Shukla Trayodashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 144°–156° is the 13th, Shukla Trayodashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:27 here. Dwadashi ended at 13:06 Mon, before it. Trayodashi ends at 09:54, when the lead reaches 156°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why is Chaturdashi skipped here?
Chaturdashi began after one sunrise and ended before the next, so no day here reads Chaturdashi.
A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Chaturdashi began at 09:54 and ended at 06:17 Wed, between the sunrises of 06:27 and 06:28 Wed. Tuesday reads Trayodashi and Wednesday reads Purnima: Chaturdashi is a kshaya tithi here.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Tue 22 Dec? 04:46–05:37

Which nakshatra is it on Tue 22 Dec? Rohini
At sunrise the Moon was at 40.1°: Rohini, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Rohini spans 40°00′–53°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 40°. It leaves at 03:26 Wed, for Mrigashira.
Which yoga is it on Tue 22 Dec? Sadhya
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 286.2°: Sadhya.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 246.1° + 40.1° = 286.2°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 280°00′–293°20′ is the 22nd, Sadhya. It ends at 17:02, then Shubha.
Which karana is it on Tue 22 Dec? Taitila
At sunrise the lead was 154°: the second half of Trayodashi, Taitila.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Trayodashi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava ended at 23:34 Mon, when the lead reached 150°; Taitila runs until 09:54.
Which vara is Tue 22 Dec, and from when? Mangalawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:27 on Tuesday: Mangalawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:27 to 06:28 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.
Which Hindu month is Tue 22 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 9 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika: Margashirsha.
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 22 Dec in (purnimanta)? Margashirsha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Margashirsha.
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 22 Dec 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 271.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.

What time is moonrise on Tue 22 Dec? 16:10
