Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Fri 11 Jun 1999

Shiva’s Pradosh puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Trayodashi runs from 03:13 on Fri 11 Jun to 23:36 on Fri 11 Jun, so only Friday’s pradosha (17:44–20:19) falls within it. No text giving Pradosh Vrat’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.

Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 23:36 on Fri 11 Jun to 19:49 on Sat 12 Jun, so only Friday night’s nishitha (23:46–00:38 Sat) falls within it. No text giving Masik Shivratri’s time was found; nishitha is Tithika’s convention.

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 324°–336° is the 28th, Krishna Trayodashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:39 here. Dwadashi ended at 03:13, before it. Trayodashi ends at 23:36, when the lead reaches 336°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 30 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Thu 10 Jun ran from sunset 17:44 Thu to sunrise 06:39, 12 h 55 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 51 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:39 to 17:44, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 23 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:44 to 06:40 Sat, 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 fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Bharani spans 13°20′–26°40′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 20°. It leaves at 13:46, for Krittika.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 56.2° + 22.2° = 78.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 66°40′–80°00′ is the 6th, Atiganda. It ends at 09:03, then Sukarma.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Trayodashi is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja runs until 13:27, when the lead reaches 330°; Vanija until 23:36.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:39 to 06:40 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 15 May 09:05 Sat to 13 Jun 16:02 Sun the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 15 Jun 06:08 Tue, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Jyeshtha, before Jyeshtha 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 13 Jun, with the Sun in Vrishabha, begins Jyeshtha (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) here, and Jyeshtha (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 17 Mar 1999, 15:47 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 83.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2056; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1921.
