Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Sun 15 Feb 1914

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 240°–252° is the 21st, Krishna Shashthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:06 here. Panchami ended at 23:33 Sat, before it. Shashthi ends at 21:10, when the lead reaches 252°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 10 Feb, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.

Sunrise here, 07:00, came before Panchami ended at 08:03: this day reads Panchami. Shashthi ends at 05:40 Mon, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Shashthi: it is kshaya.

Sunrise here, 06:06, came after Panchami ended at 23:33 Sat: this day reads Shashthi.

The night of Sat 14 Feb ran from sunset 18:47 Sat to sunrise 06:06, 11 h 19 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:06 to 18:47, 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, 18:47 to 06:07 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 25 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′. Swati spans 186°40′–200°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 186°40′. It leaves at 04:13 Mon, for Vishakha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 303.2° + 186.9° = 490.1°, one full turn and 130.1°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 120°00′–133°20′ is the 10th, Ganda. It ends at 11:13, then Vriddhi.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Shashthi is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja runs until 10:18, when the lead reaches 246°; Vanija until 21:10.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:06 to 06:07 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.

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: Makara gives Magha. The Sun enters Kumbha on 12 Feb, inside the month. The next new moon, 24 Feb, finds it in Kumbha and begins Phalguna.

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 24 Feb, with the Sun in Kumbha, begins Phalguna. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Phalguna here, and Magha in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 6 Apr 1913, 14:47 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 309.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1970; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1835.
