Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Sun 29 May 1904

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 180°–192° is the 16th, Krishna Pratipada. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:35 here. Purnima ended at 05:54, before it. Pratipada ends at 05:18 Mon, when the lead reaches 192°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 29 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.

The night of Sat 28 May ran from sunset 17:44 Sat to sunrise 06:35, 12 h 50 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 51 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:35 to 17:44, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 23 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:44 to 06:35 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 36 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

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 4 at 223°20′. It leaves at 08:52, for Jyeshtha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 45° + 225.4° = 270.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 266°40′–280°00′ is the 21st, Siddha. It ends at 22:41, then Sadhya.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Pratipada is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava runs until 17:32, when the lead reaches 186°; Kaulava until 05:18 Mon.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:35 to 06:35 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 15 May 07:57 Sun to 13 Jun 18:10 Mon the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 13 Jun 21:50 Mon, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Jyeshtha, before Jyeshtha itself.

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 13 Jun, with the Sun in Vrishabha, begins Jyeshtha (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) here, and Jyeshtha (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 17 Mar 1904, 02:39 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 71.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1961; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1826.
