Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Thu 22 May 2064

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, 06:33 here. Shashthi ended at 05:39, before it. Saptami ends at 04:09 Fri, when the lead reaches 84°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 16 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.

The night of Wed 21 May ran from sunset 17:45 Wed to sunrise 06:33, 12 h 48 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 51 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:33 to 17:45, 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, 17:45 to 06:33 Fri, 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 fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Ashlesha spans 106°40′–120°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 106°40′. It leaves at 00:19 Fri, for Magha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 37.3° + 109.8° = 147.1°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 146°40′–160°00′ is the 12th, Dhruva. It ends at 03:28 Fri, then Vyaghata.

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 runs until 16:57, when the lead reaches 78°; Vanija until 04:09 Fri.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:33 to 06:33 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 16 May 06:55 Fri to 14 Jun 19:21 Sat the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 14 Jun 22:06 Sat, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Jyeshtha, before Jyeshtha 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 16 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 17 Mar 2064, 22:45 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 63.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2121; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1986.
