Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Wed 3 Dec 1980

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 312°–324° is the 27th, Krishna Dwadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:29 here. Ekadashi ended at 03:20, before it. Dwadashi ends at 05:50 Thu, when the lead reaches 324°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 22 Nov, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Dwadashi began at 03:20, before sunrise at 05:29, and ends at 05:50 Thu, after the next sunrise at 05:29 Thu. Both days read Dwadashi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Tue 2 Dec ran from sunset 18:36 Tue to sunrise 05:29, 10 h 53 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:29 to 18:36, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 38 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:36 to 05:29 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 21 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′. Chitra spans 173°20′–186°40′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 180°. It leaves at 17:30, for Swati.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 227.8° + 180.7° = 408.5°, one full turn and 48.5°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 40°00′–53°20′ is the 4th, Saubhagya. It ends at 14:32, then Shobhana.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwadashi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava runs until 16:37, when the lead reaches 318°; Taitila until 05:50 Thu.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:29 to 05:29 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

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: Tula gives Kartika. The Sun enters Vrishchika on 15 Nov, inside the month. The next new moon, 7 Dec, finds it in Vrishchika and begins Margashirsha.

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 7 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, begins Margashirsha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Margashirsha here, and Kartika in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 16 Mar 1980, 15:55 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 255° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2037; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1902.
