Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Sun 14 Sep 2059

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 72°–84° is the 7th, Shukla Saptami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:09 here. Shashthi ended at 08:59 Sat, before it. Saptami ends at 09:41, when the lead reaches 84°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 6 Sep, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Sat 13 Sep ran from sunset 18:07 Sat to sunrise 06:09, 12 h 2 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:09 to 18:07, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 29 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:07 to 06:08 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 30 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 02:17 Mon, for Mula.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 146.9° + 229.2° = 376.1°, one full turn and 16.1°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 13°20′–26°40′ is the 2nd, Priti. It ends at 00:29 Mon, then Ayushmana.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Saptami is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja ended at 21:25 Sat, when the lead reached 78°; Vanija runs until 09:41.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:09 to 06:08 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.

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: Simha gives Bhadrapada. The Sun enters Kanya on 17 Sep, inside the month. The next new moon, 6 Oct, finds it in Kanya and begins Ashwina.

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 6 Sep, with the Sun in Simha, began Bhadrapada. This Shukla paksha reads Bhadrapada in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 12 Apr 2059, 06:29 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 149.1° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2116; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1981.
