Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Wed 11 Apr 2040

Amavasya follows the tithi at sunrise. Amavasya runs from 11:38 on Tue 10 Apr to 11:00 on Wed 11 Apr, so it holds sunrise only on Wed 11 Apr, at 06:21. No text giving Amavasya’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.

Amavasya: every date in Ipameri

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 348°–360° is the 30th, Krishna Amavasya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:21 here. Chaturdashi ended at 11:38 Tue, before it. Amavasya ends at 11:00, when the lead reaches 360°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 28 Mar, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Tue 10 Apr ran from sunset 18:06 Tue to sunrise 06:21, 12 h 15 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 49 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:21 to 18:05, 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 night here, 18:05 to 06:21 Thu, 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 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 3 at 353°20′. It leaves at 14:52, for Ashwini.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 357.7° + 355.3° = 713°, one full turn and 353°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 346°40′–360°00′ is the 27th, Vaidhriti. It ends at 18:13, then Vishkambha.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Amavasya is Chatushpada and the second Nagava. Chatushpada ended at 23:15 Tue, when the lead reached 354°; Nagava runs until 11:00.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:21 to 06:21 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

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: Kumbha gives Phalguna. The Sun enters Meena on 14 Mar, inside the month. The next new moon, 11 Apr, finds it in Meena and begins Chaitra.

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 11 Apr, with the Sun in Meena, begins Chaitra. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Chaitra here, and Phalguna 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 378.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2096; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1961.
