Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Mon 24 Jun 1929

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 204°–216° is the 18th, Krishna Tritiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:42 here. Dwitiya ended at 06:02, before it. Tritiya ends at 08:12 Tue, when the lead reaches 216°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 22 Jun, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Tritiya began at 06:02, before sunrise at 06:42, and ends at 08:12 Tue, after the next sunrise at 06:43 Tue. Both days read Tritiya: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Sun 23 Jun ran from sunset 17:46 Sun to sunrise 06:42, 12 h 56 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 51 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:42 to 17:47, 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, 17:47 to 06:43 Tue, 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′. Uttara Ashadha spans 266°40′–280°00′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 273°20′. It leaves at 19:09, for Shravana.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 69.5° + 273.8° = 343.3°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 333°20′–346°40′ is the 26th, Indra. It ends at 12:57, then Vaidhriti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Tritiya is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija runs until 19:09, when the lead reaches 210°; Vishti until 08:12 Tue.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:42 to 06:43 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.

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, 6 Jul, 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 6 Jul, 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: 9 Apr 1929, 17:32 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 72.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1986; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1851.
