Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Sat 16 Sep 2034

Ganesha’s puja is done at madhyahna, the middle fifth of the day. Chaturthi runs from 17:13 on Fri 15 Sep to 19:24 on Sat 16 Sep, so only Saturday’s madhyahna (10:55–13:19) falls within it.

Ganesh Chaturthi: every date in Ipameri

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 36°–48° is the 4th, Shukla Chaturthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:07 here. Tritiya ended at 17:13 Fri, before it. Chaturthi ends at 19:24, when the lead reaches 48°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 12 Sep, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Fri 15 Sep ran from sunset 18:07 Fri to sunrise 06:07, 12 h 0 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:07 to 18:08, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 30 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:08 to 06:06 Sun, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 29 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′. Swati spans 186°40′–200°00′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 190°. It leaves at 23:51, for Vishakha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 149.2° + 191.2° = 340.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 333°20′–346°40′ is the 26th, Indra. It ends at 17:42, then Vaidhriti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturthi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija runs until 06:16, when the lead reaches 42°; Vishti until 19:24.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:07 to 06:06 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.

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: Simha gives Bhadrapada. The Sun enters Kanya on 17 Sep, inside the month. The next new moon, 12 Oct, finds it in Kanya and begins Ashwina.

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 Sep, with the Sun in Simha, began Bhadrapada. This Shukla paksha reads Bhadrapada in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 20 Mar 2034, 07:14 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 173.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2091; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1956.
