Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Sat 22 Feb 2048

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 96°–108° is the 9th, Shukla Navami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:09 here. Ashtami ended at 05:42, before it. Navami ends at 08:15 Sun, when the lead reaches 108°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 13 Feb, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Navami began at 05:42, before sunrise at 06:09, and ends at 08:15 Sun, after the next sunrise at 06:09 Sun. Both days read Navami: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Fri 21 Feb ran from sunset 18:43 Fri to sunrise 06:09, 11 h 26 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:09 to 18:42, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 34 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:42 to 06:09 Sun, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 25 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′. Rohini spans 40°00′–53°20′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 43°20′. It leaves at 22:52, for Mrigashira.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 308.9° + 45.1° = 354°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 346°40′–360°00′ is the 27th, Vaidhriti. It ends at 17:26, then Vishkambha.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Navami is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava runs until 19:00, when the lead reaches 102°; Kaulava until 08:15 Sun.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:09 to 06:09 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: Kumbha gives Phalguna. The Sun enters Meena on 14 Mar, inside the month. The next new moon, 14 Mar, 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 13 Feb, with the Sun in Kumbha, began Phalguna. This Shukla paksha reads Phalguna in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 26 Mar 2047, 08:44 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 327.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2104; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1969.
