Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Thu 21 Aug 2042

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 60°–72° is the 6th, Shukla Shashthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:27 here. Panchami ended at 01:10, before it. Shashthi ends at 03:44 Fri, when the lead reaches 72°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 Aug, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.

The night of Wed 20 Aug ran from sunset 18:03 Wed to sunrise 06:27, 12 h 24 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 49 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:27 to 18:04, 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 night here, 18:04 to 06:27 Fri, 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′. Chitra spans 173°20′–186°40′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 183°20′. It leaves at 06:58, for Swati.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 124° + 186.4° = 310.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 306°40′–320°00′ is the 24th, Shukla. It ends at 00:25 Fri, then Brahma.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Shashthi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava runs until 14:28, when the lead reaches 66°; Taitila until 03:44 Fri.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:27 to 06:27 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: Karka gives Shravana. The Sun enters Simha on 17 Aug, inside the month. The next new moon, 14 Sep, finds it in Simha and begins Bhadrapada.

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 Aug, with the Sun in Karka, began Shravana. This Shukla paksha reads Shravana in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 21 Mar 2042, 14:23 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 147.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2099; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1964.
