Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Tue 7 Nov 2056

Govardhan Puja is done in pratahkala, the first fifth of the day. Pratipada runs from 09:21 on Tue 7 Nov to 05:30 on Wed 8 Nov, between the two mornings’ pratahkala, touching neither. The Nirnayasindhu then takes the earlier day: Tue 7 Nov. No text giving Govardhan Puja’s time was found; pratahkala is Tithika’s convention.

Govardhan Puja: every date in Ipameri

Amavasya follows the tithi at sunrise. Amavasya runs from 13:09 on Mon 6 Nov to 09:21 on Tue 7 Nov, so it holds sunrise only on Tue 7 Nov, at 05:31. 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: 348°–360° is the 30th, Krishna Amavasya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:31 here. Chaturdashi ended at 13:09 Mon, before it. Amavasya ends at 09:21, when the lead reaches 360°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 23 Oct, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Pratipada began at 09:21 and ended at 05:30 Wed, between the sunrises of 05:31 and 05:30 Wed. Tuesday reads Amavasya and Wednesday reads Dwitiya: Pratipada is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Mon 6 Nov ran from sunset 18:21 Mon to sunrise 05:31, 11 h 10 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 44 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:31 to 18:22, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 36 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:22 to 05:30 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 23 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′. Swati spans 186°40′–200°00′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 196°40′. It leaves at 07:30, for Vishakha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 201° + 198.7° = 399.7°, one full turn and 39.7°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 26°40′–40°00′ is the 3rd, Ayushmana. It ends at 05:53, then Saubhagya.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Amavasya is Chatushpada and the second Nagava. Chatushpada ended at 23:16 Mon, when the lead reached 354°; Nagava runs until 09:21.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:31 to 05:30 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, 7 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 7 Nov, with the Sun in Tula, begins Kartika. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Kartika here, and Ashwina in the amanta count.

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 229.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2113; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1978.
