Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Sat 17 Mar 2029

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 24°–36° is the 3rd, Shukla Tritiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:16 here. Dwitiya ended at 06:13, before it. Tritiya ends at 08:44 Sun, when the lead reaches 36°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 Mar, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Tritiya began at 06:13, before sunrise at 06:16, and ends at 08:44 Sun, after the next sunrise at 06:16 Sun. Both days read Tritiya: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Fri 16 Mar ran from sunset 18:26 Fri to sunrise 06:16, 11 h 50 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 47 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:16 to 18:25, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 31 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:25 to 06:16 Sun, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 28 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′. Revati spans 346°40′–360°00′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 356°40′. It leaves at 12:43, for Ashwini.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 332.8° + 356.8° = 689.6°, one full turn and 329.6°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 320°00′–333°20′ is the 25th, Brahma. It ends at 13:13, then Indra.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Tritiya is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila runs until 19:29, when the lead reaches 30°; Garaja until 08:44 Sun.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:16 to 06:16 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 15 Mar 01:19 Thu to 13 Apr 18:40 Fri the Sun stayed in Meena, entering Mesha at 13 Apr 19:24 Fri, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Chaitra, before Chaitra 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 15 Mar, with the Sun in Meena, began Chaitra (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Chaitra (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 15 Mar 2029, 01:19 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 2.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2086; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1951.
