Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Tue 12 Jun 1917

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 264°–276° is the 23rd, Krishna Ashtami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:39 here. Saptami ended at 16:43 Mon, before it. Ashtami ends at 14:37, when the lead reaches 276°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 5 Jun, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Mon 11 Jun ran from sunset 17:44 Mon to sunrise 06:39, 12 h 55 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 51 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:39 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 06:40 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 37 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′. Purva Bhadrapada spans 320°00′–333°20′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 326°40′. It leaves at 12:44, for Uttara Bhadrapada.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 58.1° + 329.8° = 387.9°, one full turn and 27.9°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 26°40′–40°00′ is the 3rd, Ayushmana. It ends at 02:04 Wed, then Saubhagya.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ashtami is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava ended at 03:38, when the lead reached 270°; Kaulava runs until 14:37.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:39 to 06:40 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.

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: Vrishabha gives Jyeshtha. The Sun enters Mithuna on 14 Jun, inside the month. The next new moon, 19 Jun, finds it in Mithuna and begins Ashadha.

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 19 Jun, with the Sun in Mithuna, begins Ashadha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Ashadha here, and Jyeshtha in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 23 Mar 1917, 01:04 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 78.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1974; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1839.
