Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Sun 19 Jan 1997

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 132°–144° is the 12th, Shukla Dwadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:52 here. Ekadashi ended at 06:20, before it. Dwadashi ends at 07:31 Mon, when the lead reaches 144°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 Jan, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Dwadashi began at 06:20, before sunrise at 06:52, and ends at 07:31 Mon, after the next sunrise at 06:53 Mon. Both days read Dwadashi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Sat 18 Jan ran from sunset 19:54 Sat to sunrise 06:52, 10 h 58 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:52 to 19:54, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 37 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 19:54 to 06:53 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 22 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 3 at 46°40′. It leaves at 17:33, for Mrigashira.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 275.5° + 47.8° = 323.3°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 320°00′–333°20′ is the 25th, Brahma. It ends at 00:45 Mon, then Indra.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwadashi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava runs until 18:53, when the lead reaches 138°; Balava until 07:31 Mon.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:52 to 06:53 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: Dhanu gives Pausha. The Sun enters Makara on 13 Jan, inside the month. The next new moon, 7 Feb, finds it in Makara and begins Magha.

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 9 Jan, with the Sun in Dhanu, began Pausha. This Shukla paksha reads Pausha in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 1996, 07:44 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 300.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2053; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1918.
