Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Sat 9 Aug 1958

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 288°–300° is the 25th, Krishna Dashami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:35 here. Navami ended at 05:35, before it. Dashami ends at 06:36 Sun, when the lead reaches 300°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 30 Jul, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Dashami began at 05:35, before sunrise at 06:35, and ends at 06:36 Sun, after the next sunrise at 06:35 Sun. Both days read Dashami: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Fri 8 Aug ran from sunset 18:00 Fri to sunrise 06:35, 12 h 35 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:35 to 18:01, 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 night here, 18:01 to 06:35 Sun, 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 fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Rohini spans 40°00′–53°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 40°. It leaves at 05:23 Sun, for Mrigashira.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 113° + 41.5° = 154.5°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 146°40′–160°00′ is the 12th, Dhruva. It ends at 16:30, then Vyaghata.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dashami is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija runs until 18:11, when the lead reaches 294°; Vishti until 06:36 Sun.

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

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 16 Jul 15:33 Wed to 15 Aug 00:33 Fri the Sun stayed in Karka, entering Simha at 16 Aug 13:17 Sat, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Shravana, before Shravana 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 15 Aug, with the Sun in Karka, begins Shravana (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Shravana (Adhik) here, and Shravana (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 20 Mar 1958, 06:49 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 137° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2015; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1880.
