Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Sat 13 May 2062

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, 06:30 here. Chaturthi ended at 11:48 Fri, before it. Panchami ends at 08:53, when the lead reaches 60°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Shashthi began at 08:53 and ended at 06:19 Sun, between the sunrises of 06:30 and 06:30 Sun. Saturday reads Panchami and Sunday reads Saptami: Shashthi is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Fri 12 May ran from sunset 17:48 Fri to sunrise 06:30, 12 h 42 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:30 to 17:48, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 24 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:48 to 06:30 Sun, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 35 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′. Punarvasu spans 80°00′–93°20′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 86°40′. It leaves at 17:13, for Pushya.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 28.2° + 86.9° = 115.1°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 106°40′–120°00′ is the 9th, Shula. It ends at 14:10, then Ganda.

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 22:18 Fri, when the lead reached 54°; Balava runs until 08:53.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:30 to 06:30 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.

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: Mesha gives Vaishakha. The Sun enters Vrishabha on 15 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 7 Jun, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.

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 9 May, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha. This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 9 Apr 2062, 14:17 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 32.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2119; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1984.
