How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 12 May? Krishna Chaturdashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 340.8°: Krishna Chaturdashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 336°–348° is the 29th, Krishna Chaturdashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:29 here. Trayodashi ended at 19:58 Tue, before it. Chaturdashi ends at 22:10, when the lead reaches 348°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 29 Apr, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 12 May? 04:47–05:38
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:47–05:38.
The night of Tue 11 May ran from sunset 17:49 Tue to sunrise 06:29, 12 h 40 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 12 May? 11:46–12:31
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:46–12:31.
Daylight here, 06:29 to 17:48, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:46–12:31: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 12 May?
06:29–07:54 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 06:29 to 17:48, 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.
The night here, 17:48 to 06:29 Thu, 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.
Daylight in 8 parts
When is Rahu Kaal on Wed 12 May? 12:08–13:33
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:08–13:33.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 12 May? 07:54–09:19
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 07:54–09:19.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 12 May? 10:43–12:08
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 10:43–12:08.
Daylight here runs 06:29 to 17:48, 11 h 19 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 24 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Wednesday Rahu Kaal is the 5th part, Yamaganda the 2nd and Gulikai Kalam the 4th.
Sunrise and sunset
What time is sunrise on Wed 12 May? 06:29
Day here: sunrise 06:29, sunset 17:48, 11 h 19 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 12 May? 17:48
Day here: sunrise 06:29, sunset 17:48, 11 h 19 m of daylight.
Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 11 h 19 m and the night until the next sunrise 12 h 41 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 12 May? Ashwini
At sunrise the Moon was at 8.7°: Ashwini, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Ashwini spans 0°00′–13°20′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 6°40′. It leaves at 15:44, for Bharani.
Which yoga is it on Wed 12 May? Ayushmana
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 36.6°: Ayushmana.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 27.9° + 8.7° = 36.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 26°40′–40°00′ is the 3rd, Ayushmana. It ends at 12:45, then Saubhagya.
Which karana is it on Wed 12 May? Vishti
At sunrise the lead was 340.8°: the first half of Chaturdashi, Vishti.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturdashi is Vishti and the second Shakuni. Vishti runs until 09:02, when the lead reaches 342°; Shakuni until 22:10.
Which vara is Wed 12 May, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:29 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:29 to 06:29 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 12 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha (Adhik)
No sankranti between the new moons of 14 Apr and 14 May: Adhika Vaishakha.
A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 14 Apr 08:35 Wed to 14 May 00:30 Fri the Sun stayed in Mesha, entering Vrishabha at 14 May 10:42 Fri, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Vaishakha, before Vaishakha itself.
Which Hindu month is Wed 12 May in (purnimanta)? Vaishakha (Adhik)
Counted full moon to full moon, this waning half already belongs to Vaishakha (Adhik).
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 May, with the Sun in Mesha, begins Vaishakha (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Vaishakha (Adhik) here, and Vaishakha (Adhik) in the amanta count.
Which samvat year is Wed 12 May in? Vikram 1972 · Shaka 1837
Vikram Samvat 1972 began at the Chaitra new moon of 15 Mar 1915.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 15 Mar 1915, 16:41 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 56.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1972; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1837.
Moonrise and moonset
What time is moonrise on Wed 12 May? 05:56 Thu
The Moon rises here at 05:56 Thu.
What time is moonset on Wed 12 May? 16:40
The Moon was up at sunrise and set at 16:40; it rises again at 05:56 Thu, so this day's moonrise falls in its night.
The Moon was up at sunrise and sets at 16:40, in this day's daylight; it rises again at 05:56 Thu.
