How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 21 May? Shukla Panchami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 55.6°: Shukla Panchami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 48°–60° is the 5th, Shukla Panchami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:32 here. Chaturthi ended at 13:50 Tue, before it. Panchami ends at 16:17, when the lead reaches 60°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 16 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 21 May? 04:50–05:41
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:50–05:41.
The night of Tue 20 May ran from sunset 17:46 Tue to sunrise 06:32, 12 h 46 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 51 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 21 May? 11:46–12:31
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:46–12:31.
Daylight here, 06:32 to 17:45, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 44 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:46–12:31: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 21 May?
06:32–07:56 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 06:32 to 17:45, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 24 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 17:45 to 06:32 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 35 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
Daylight in 8 parts
When is Rahu Kaal on Wed 21 May? 12:09–13:33
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:09–13:33.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 21 May? 07:56–09:20
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 07:56–09:20.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 21 May? 10:45–12:09
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 10:45–12:09.
Daylight here runs 06:32 to 17:45, 11 h 13 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 24 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Wednesday Rahu Kaal is the 5th part, Yamaganda the 2nd and Gulikai Kalam the 4th.
Sunrise and sunset
What time is sunrise on Wed 21 May? 06:32
Day here: sunrise 06:32, sunset 17:45, 11 h 13 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 21 May? 17:45
Day here: sunrise 06:32, sunset 17:45, 11 h 13 m of daylight.
Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 11 h 13 m and the night until the next sunrise 12 h 47 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 21 May? Punarvasu
At sunrise the Moon was at 92.3°: Punarvasu, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Punarvasu spans 80°00′–93°20′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 90°. It leaves at 08:39, for Pushya.
Which yoga is it on Wed 21 May? Ganda
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 129°: Ganda.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 36.7° + 92.3° = 129°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 120°00′–133°20′ is the 10th, Ganda. It ends at 14:38, then Vriddhi.
Which karana is it on Wed 21 May? Balava
At sunrise the lead was 55.6°: the second half of Panchami, Balava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Panchami is Bava and the second Balava. Bava ended at 03:04, when the lead reached 54°; Balava runs until 16:17.
Which vara is Wed 21 May, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:32 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:32 to 06:32 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 21 May in (amanta)? Jyeshtha
This month began at the new moon of 16 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha: Jyeshtha.
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, 14 Jun, finds it in Mithuna and begins Ashadha.
Which Hindu month is Wed 21 May in (purnimanta)? Jyeshtha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Jyeshtha.
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 16 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha. This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 21 May in? Vikram 2026 · Shaka 1891
Vikram Samvat 2026 began at the Chaitra new moon of 18 Mar 1969.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 18 Mar 1969, 01:51 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 62.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2026; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1891.
Moonrise and moonset
What time is moonrise on Wed 21 May? 10:54
The Moon rises here at 10:54.
What time is moonset on Wed 21 May? 22:09
The Moon was down at sunrise and rises at 10:54, in this day's daylight; it sets again at 22:09.
