Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Thu 13 Oct 2067

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, 05:45 here. Chaturthi ended at 07:18 Wed, before it. Panchami ends at 06:34, when the lead reaches 60°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 8 Oct, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Shashthi began at 06:34 and ended at 05:27 Fri, between the sunrises of 05:45 and 05:44 Fri. Thursday reads Panchami and Friday reads Saptami: Shashthi is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Wed 12 Oct ran from sunset 18:12 Wed to sunrise 05:45, 11 h 33 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 46 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:45 to 18:12, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 33 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:12 to 05:44 Fri, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 26 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 3 at 233°20′. It leaves at 14:52, for Mula.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 175.3° + 234.9° = 410.2°, one full turn and 50.2°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 40°00′–53°20′ is the 4th, Saubhagya. It ends at 11:00, then Shobhana.

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 18:58 Wed, when the lead reached 54°; Balava runs until 06:34.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:45 to 05:44 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.

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, 6 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 8 Oct, with the Sun in Kanya, began Ashwina. This Shukla paksha reads Ashwina in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 15 Mar 2067, 05:29 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 205.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2124; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1989.
