Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Sun 11 Sep 1960

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 252°–264° is the 22nd, Krishna Saptami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:11 here. Shashthi ended at 04:35, before it. Saptami ends at 06:17 Mon, when the lead reaches 264°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 5 Sep, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Saptami began at 04:35, before sunrise at 06:11, and ends at 06:17 Mon, after the next sunrise at 06:10 Mon. Both days read Saptami: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Sat 10 Sep ran from sunset 18:07 Sat to sunrise 06:11, 12 h 4 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:11 to 18:07, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 29 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:07 to 06:10 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 30 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′. Krittika spans 26°40′–40°00′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 36°40′. It leaves at 09:58, for Rohini.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 145.3° + 38.1° = 183.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 173°20′–186°40′ is the 14th, Harshana. It ends at 12:09, then Vajra.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Saptami is Vishti and the second Bava. Vishti runs until 17:22, when the lead reaches 258°; Bava until 06:17 Mon.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:11 to 06:10 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.

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: Simha gives Bhadrapada. The Sun enters Kanya on 16 Sep, inside the month. The next new moon, 20 Sep, finds it in Kanya and begins Ashwina.

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 20 Sep, with the Sun in Kanya, begins Ashwina. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Ashwina here, and Bhadrapada in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 27 Mar 1960, 04:37 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 162° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2017; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1882.
