Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Tue 10 Oct 2051

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 48°–60° is the 5th, Shukla Panchami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:47 here. Chaturthi ended at 04:11 Mon, before it. Panchami ends at 06:20, when the lead reaches 60°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 4 Oct, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Panchami began at 04:11 Mon, before sunrise at 05:48 Mon, and ends at 06:20, after the next sunrise at 05:47. Both days read Panchami: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Mon 9 Oct ran from sunset 18:11 Mon to sunrise 05:47, 11 h 36 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 46 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:47 to 18:12, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 33 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:12 to 05:47 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 26 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′. Jyeshtha spans 226°40′–240°00′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 230°. It leaves at 21:13, for Mula.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 172.4° + 232.2° = 404.6°, one full turn and 44.6°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 40°00′–53°20′ is the 4th, Saubhagya. It ends at 21:42, then Shobhana.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Panchami is Bava and the second Balava. Bava ended at 17:19 Mon, when the lead reached 54°; Balava runs until 06:20.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:47 to 05:47 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.

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: Kanya gives Ashwina. The Sun enters Tula on 17 Oct, inside the month. The next new moon, 3 Nov, finds it in Tula and begins Kartika.

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 4 Oct, with the Sun in Kanya, began Ashwina. This Shukla paksha reads Ashwina in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 10 Apr 2051, 22:59 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 175.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2108; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1973.
