Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Wed 5 Oct 2039

The Sankashti fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 07:05 on Wed 5 Oct to 09:06 on Thu 6 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Wed 5 Oct, at 21:10. No text giving Sankashti Chaturthi’s time was found; moonrise is Tithika’s convention.

Sankashti Chaturthi: every date in Ipameri

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 204°–216° is the 18th, Krishna Tritiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:51 here. Dwitiya ended at 05:36 Tue, before it. Tritiya ends at 07:05, when the lead reaches 216°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 2 Oct, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Tritiya began at 05:36 Tue, before sunrise at 05:52 Tue, and ends at 07:05, after the next sunrise at 05:51. Both days read Tritiya: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Tue 4 Oct ran from sunset 18:10 Tue to sunrise 05:51, 11 h 41 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 46 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:51 to 18:10, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 32 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:10 to 05:50 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 27 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 13:06, for Krittika.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 167.6° + 23° = 190.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 186°40′–200°00′ is the 15th, Vajra. It ends at 23:08, then Siddhi.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Tritiya is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 18:16 Tue, when the lead reached 210°; Vishti runs until 07:05.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:51 to 05:50 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 18 Sep 05:23 Sun to 17 Oct 16:09 Mon the Sun stayed in Kanya, entering Tula at 17 Oct 19:25 Mon, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Ashwina, before Ashwina 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 17 Oct, with the Sun in Kanya, begins Ashwina (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Ashwina (Adhik) here, and Ashwina (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 24 Mar 2039, 14:59 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 188.1° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2096; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1961.
