Panchang in Khmelnytskyi, Ukraine Tue 14 Jun 2011

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 156°–168° is the 14th, Shukla Chaturdashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:05 here. Trayodashi ended at 03:21, before it. Chaturdashi ends at 01:07 Wed, when the lead reaches 168°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 2 Jun, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.

Sunrise here, 05:22, came before Trayodashi ended at 05:51: this day reads Trayodashi. Chaturdashi ends at 03:37 Wed, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Chaturdashi: it is kshaya.

The night of Mon 13 Jun ran from sunset 21:18 Mon to sunrise 05:05, 7 h 47 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 31 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:05 to 21:19, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 2 h 1 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 21:19 to 05:05 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 58 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′. Anuradha spans 213°20′–226°40′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 213°20′. It leaves at 23:43, for Jyeshtha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 58.7° + 215.7° = 274.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 266°40′–280°00′ is the 21st, Siddha. It ends at 14:01, then Sadhya.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturdashi is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja runs until 14:12, when the lead reaches 162°; Vanija until 01:07 Wed.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:05 to 05:05 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.

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: Vrishabha gives Jyeshtha. The Sun enters Mithuna on 15 Jun, inside the month. The next new moon, 1 Jul, finds it in Mithuna and begins Ashadha.

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 2 Jun, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha. This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 3 Apr 2011, 17:32 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 69.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2068; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1933.
