Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Thu 31 May 1923

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 192°–204° is the 17th, Krishna Dwitiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:35 here. Pratipada ended at 22:57 Wed, before it. Dwitiya ends at 20:13, when the lead reaches 204°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 30 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.

Sunrise here, 05:24, came before Pratipada ended at 07:27: this day reads Pratipada. Dwitiya ends at 04:43 Fri, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Dwitiya: it is kshaya.

Sunrise here, 06:35, came after Pratipada ended at 22:57 Wed: this day reads Dwitiya.

The night of Wed 30 May ran from sunset 17:44 Wed to sunrise 06:35, 12 h 51 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 51 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:35 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 06:36 Fri, 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′. Mula spans 240°00′–253°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 240°. It leaves at 00:41 Fri, for Purva Ashadha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 46.1° + 242.5° = 288.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 280°00′–293°20′ is the 22nd, Sadhya. It ends at 13:57, then Shubha.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwitiya is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila runs until 09:31, when the lead reaches 198°; Garaja until 20:13.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:35 to 06:36 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 15 May 19:38 Tue to 14 Jun 09:41 Thu the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 14 Jun 18:42 Thu, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Jyeshtha, before Jyeshtha 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 Jun, with the Sun in Vrishabha, begins Jyeshtha (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) here, and Jyeshtha (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 17 Mar 1923, 09:51 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 73° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1980; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1845.
