Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Sat 27 Feb 1937

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, 06:11 here. Dwitiya ended at 05:59, before it. Tritiya ends at 07:26 Sun, when the lead reaches 216°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 25 Feb, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Tritiya began at 05:59, before sunrise at 06:11, and ends at 07:26 Sun, after the next sunrise at 06:11 Sun. Both days read Tritiya: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Fri 26 Feb ran from sunset 18:40 Fri to sunrise 06:11, 11 h 31 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 46 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:11 to 18:39, 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 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 4 at 156°40′. It leaves at 07:11, for Hasta.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 315.4° + 159.5° = 474.9°, one full turn and 114.9°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 106°40′–120°00′ is the 9th, Shula. It ends at 15:21, then Ganda.

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 18:39, when the lead reaches 210°; Vishti until 07:26 Sun.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:11 to 06:11 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.

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 11 Feb, inside the month. The next new moon, 12 Mar, 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 12 Mar, 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: 23 Mar 1936, 01:13 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 336° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1993; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1858.
