Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Tue 17 Oct 1933

Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 06:20 on Tue 17 Oct to 04:49 on Wed 18 Oct, so only Tuesday night’s nishitha (23:35–00:20 Wed) falls within it. No text giving Masik Shivratri’s time was found; nishitha is Tithika’s convention.

Masik Shivratri: every date in Ipameri

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 324°–336° is the 28th, Krishna Trayodashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:42 here. Dwadashi ended at 07:08 Mon, before it. Trayodashi ends at 06:20, when the lead reaches 336°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 3 Oct, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Chaturdashi began at 06:20 and ended at 04:49 Wed, between the sunrises of 05:42 and 05:42 Wed. Tuesday reads Trayodashi and Wednesday reads Amavasya: Chaturdashi is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Mon 16 Oct ran from sunset 18:13 Mon to sunrise 05:42, 11 h 29 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:42 to 18:13, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 33 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:13 to 05:42 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 26 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 Phalguni spans 146°40′–160°00′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 153°20′. It leaves at 12:16, for Hasta.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 180.6° + 156.3° = 336.9°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 333°20′–346°40′ is the 26th, Indra. It ends at 21:41, then Vaidhriti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Trayodashi is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja ended at 18:50 Mon, when the lead reached 330°; Vanija runs until 06:20.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:42 to 05:42 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: Kanya gives Ashwina. The Sun enters Tula on 16 Oct, inside the month. The next new moon, 19 Oct, finds it in Tula and begins Kartika.

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 Oct, with the Sun in Tula, begins Kartika. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Kartika here, and Ashwina in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 26 Mar 1933, 01:20 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 198.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1990; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1855.
