Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Wed 19 Apr 2056

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, 06:23 here. Chaturthi ended at 06:22, before it. Panchami ends at 08:15 Thu, when the lead reaches 60°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 14 Apr, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Panchami began at 06:22, before sunrise at 06:23, and ends at 08:15 Thu, after the next sunrise at 06:23 Thu. Both days read Panchami: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Tue 18 Apr ran from sunset 18:00 Tue to sunrise 06:23, 12 h 23 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 49 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:23 to 18:00, 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, 18:00 to 06:23 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′. Mrigashira spans 53°20′–66°40′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 53°20′. It leaves at 08:38 Thu, for Ardra.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 5.4° + 53.4° = 58.8°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 53°20′–66°40′ is the 5th, Shobhana. It ends at 20:46, then Atiganda.

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 runs until 19:21, when the lead reaches 54°; Balava until 08:15 Thu.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:23 to 06:23 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 14 Apr 20:50 Fri to 14 May 13:06 Sun the Sun stayed in Mesha, entering Vrishabha at 14 May 14:13 Sun, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Vaishakha, before Vaishakha itself.

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 14 Apr, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 16 Mar 2056, 03:52 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 33.6° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2113; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1978.
