Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Thu 15 Jan 2032

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, 05:49 here. Dwitiya ended at 09:26 Wed, before it. Tritiya ends at 05:54, when the lead reaches 36°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 12 Jan, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Chaturthi began at 05:54 and ended at 02:47 Fri, between the sunrises of 05:49 and 05:50 Fri. Thursday reads Tritiya and Friday reads Panchami: Chaturthi is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Wed 14 Jan ran from sunset 18:54 Wed to sunrise 05:49, 10 h 55 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:49 to 18:54, 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, 18:54 to 05:50 Fri, 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′. Dhanishtha spans 293°20′–306°40′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 303°20′. It leaves at 06:15, for Shatabhisha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 270.4° + 306.4° = 576.8°, one full turn and 216.8°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 20:41, then Variyana.

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 ended at 19:37 Wed, when the lead reached 30°; Garaja runs until 05:54.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:49 to 05:50 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.

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 14 Jan, inside the month. The next new moon, 11 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 12 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: 23 Mar 2031, 00:49 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 292.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2088; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1953.
