Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Tue 2 Jul 1912

The Sankashti fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 17:17 on Tue 2 Jul to 19:42 on Wed 3 Jul, so it holds moonrise only on Tue 2 Jul, at 20:25. No text giving Sankashti Chaturthi’s time was found; moonrise is Tithika’s convention.

Sankashti Chaturthi: every date in Ipameri

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 204°–216° is the 18th, Krishna Tritiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:43 here. Dwitiya ended at 14:59 Mon, before it. Tritiya ends at 17:24, when the lead reaches 216°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 29 Jun, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Mon 1 Jul ran from sunset 17:48 Mon to sunrise 06:43, 12 h 55 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 51 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:43 to 17:49, 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, 17:49 to 06:44 Wed, 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′. Shravana spans 280°00′–293°20′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 286°40′. It leaves at 16:15, for Dhanishtha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 77.5° + 288.6° = 366.1°, one full turn and 6.1°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 0°00′–13°20′ is the 1st, Vishkambha. It ends at 20:17, then Priti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Tritiya is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 04:11, when the lead reached 210°; Vishti runs until 17:24.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:43 to 06:44 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 15 Jun 03:23 Sat to 14 Jul 10:12 Sun the Sun stayed in Mithuna, entering Karka at 15 Jul 10:02 Mon, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Ashadha, before Ashadha 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 14 Jul, with the Sun in Mithuna, begins Ashadha (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Ashadha (Adhik) here, and Ashadha (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 18 Mar 1912, 19:08 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 102.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1969; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1834.
