Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Fri 17 Dec 2055

Amavasya follows the tithi at sunrise. Amavasya begins at 07:35 on Fri 17 Dec, after that sunrise, and ends at 05:15 on Sat 18 Dec, before the next: it holds no sunrise. A tithi that holds no sunrise is kept on the day it is current: Fri 17 Dec. 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: 336°–348° is the 29th, Krishna Chaturdashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:33 here. Trayodashi ended at 10:12 Thu, before it. Chaturdashi ends at 07:35, when the lead reaches 348°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 4 Dec, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Amavasya began at 07:35 and ended at 05:15 Sat, between the sunrises of 05:33 and 05:33 Sat. Friday reads Chaturdashi and Saturday reads Pratipada: Amavasya is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Thu 16 Dec ran from sunset 18:44 Thu to sunrise 05:33, 10 h 49 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:33 to 18:44, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 38 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:44 to 05:33 Sat, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 21 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 1 at 226°40′. It leaves at 02:20 Sat, for Mula.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 240.7° + 227.6° = 468.3°, one full turn and 108.3°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 106°40′–120°00′ is the 9th, Shula. It ends at 23:48, then Ganda.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturdashi is Vishti and the second Shakuni. Vishti ended at 20:52 Thu, when the lead reached 342°; Shakuni runs until 07:35.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:33 to 05:33 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.

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: Vrishchika gives Margashirsha. The Sun enters Dhanu on 16 Dec, inside the month. The next new moon, 18 Dec, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.

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 18 Dec, with the Sun in Dhanu, begins Pausha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Pausha here, and Margashirsha in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 28 Mar 2055, 04:01 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 257.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2112; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1977.
