Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Wed 22 Feb 1922

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It holds both sunrises, 06:09 on Tue 21 Feb and 06:09 on Wed 22 Feb. Ekadashi (04:47 Tue 21 Feb to 06:21 Wed 22 Feb) and Dwadashi (06:21 Wed 22 Feb to 08:21 Thu 23 Feb) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Wed 22 Feb. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Tue 21 Feb Dashami lasts until 04:47, inside it (04:33–06:09); on Wed 22 Feb Ekadashi holds all of it.

Vijaya Ekadashi: every date in Ipameri

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 300°–312° is the 26th, Krishna Ekadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:09 here. Dashami ended at 04:47 Tue, before it. Ekadashi ends at 06:21, when the lead reaches 312°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 11 Feb, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Ekadashi began at 04:47 Tue, before sunrise at 06:09 Tue, and ends at 06:21, after the next sunrise at 06:09. Both days read Ekadashi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Tue 21 Feb ran from sunset 18:43 Tue to sunrise 06:09, 11 h 26 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:09 to 18:43, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 34 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:43 to 06:09 Thu, 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′. Purva Ashadha spans 253°20′–266°40′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 260°. It leaves at 15:10, for Uttara Ashadha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 310.2° + 262.1° = 572.3°, one full turn and 212.3°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 200°00′–213°20′ is the 16th, Siddhi. It ends at 08:00, then Vyatipata.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ekadashi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava ended at 17:31 Tue, when the lead reached 306°; Balava runs until 06:21.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:09 to 06:09 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

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, 26 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 26 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: 8 Apr 1921, 06:04 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 315° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1978; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1843.
