Panchang in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil Fri 9 Aug 2069

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 264°–276° is the 23rd, Krishna Ashtami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:35 here. Saptami ended at 05:45, before it. Ashtami ends at 03:40 Sat, when the lead reaches 276°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 2 Aug, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Thu 8 Aug ran from sunset 18:01 Thu to sunrise 06:35, 12 h 34 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:35 to 18:01, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 25 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:01 to 06:34 Sat, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 34 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′. Bharani spans 13°20′–26°40′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 16°40′. It leaves at 22:58, for Krittika.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 112.6° + 17° = 129.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 120°00′–133°20′ is the 10th, Ganda. It ends at 12:29, then Vriddhi.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ashtami is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava runs until 16:41, when the lead reaches 270°; Kaulava until 03:40 Sat.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:35 to 06:34 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 18 Jul 08:13 Thu to 16 Aug 19:03 Fri the Sun stayed in Karka, entering Simha at 17 Aug 00:00 Sat, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Shravana, before Shravana 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 Aug, with the Sun in Karka, begins Shravana (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Shravana (Adhik) here, and Shravana (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 22 Mar 2069, 22:14 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 134.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2126; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1991.
