How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Thu 16 May? Shukla Chaturdashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 161.9°: Shukla Chaturdashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 156°–168° is the 14th, Shukla Chaturdashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:43 here. Trayodashi ended at 19:44 Wed, before it. Chaturdashi ends at 16:06, when the lead reaches 168°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 2 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Thu 16 May? 04:13–04:58
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:13–04:58.
The night of Wed 15 May ran from sunset 18:28 Wed to sunrise 05:43, 11 h 15 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 Thu 16 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 Thu 16 May? 09:58–10:49
Dur Muhurtam is the 6th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 09:58–10:49 and 15:04–15:55.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Thu 16 May? 15:04–15:55
Dur Muhurtam is the 6th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 09:58–10:49 and 15:04–15:55.
Daylight here, 05:43 to 18:28, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 51 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Thursday is the 6th and 12th, 09:58–10:49 and 15:04–15:55.
Which choghadiya is good on Thu 16 May?
05:43–07:19 is Shubha, ruled by Guru (Jupiter), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Thursday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 05:43 to 18:28, 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, 18:28 to 05:43 Fri, 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 here runs 05:43 to 18:28, 12 h 45 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 35 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Thursday Rahu Kaal is the 6th part, Yamaganda the 1st and Gulikai Kalam the 3rd.

Which nakshatra is it on Thu 16 May? Swati
At sunrise the Moon was at 193°: Swati, pada 2.
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 2 at 190°. It leaves at 16:52, for Vishakha.
Which yoga is it on Thu 16 May? Vyatipata
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 224.1°: Vyatipata.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 31.1° + 193° = 224.1°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 09:36, then Variyana.
Which karana is it on Thu 16 May? Garaja
At sunrise the lead was 161.9°: the first half of Chaturdashi, Garaja.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturdashi is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja runs until 05:57, when the lead reaches 162°; Vanija until 16:06.
Which vara is Thu 16 May, and from when? Guruwara
This day began at sunrise, 05:43 on Thursday: Guruwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:43 to 05:43 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.
Which Hindu month is Thu 16 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 2 May, 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, 1 Jun, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Thu 16 May in (purnimanta)? Vaishakha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Vaishakha.
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 2 May, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha. This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Thu 16 May in? Vikram 2087 · Shaka 1952
Vikram Samvat 2087 began at the Chaitra new moon of 2 Apr 2030.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 2 Apr 2030, 23:02 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 42.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2087; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1952.
