Panchang in Khmelnytskyi, Ukraine Fri 10 Mar 2017

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 144°–156° is the 13th, Shukla Trayodashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:36 here. Dwadashi ended at 18:09 Thu, before it. Trayodashi ends at 17:20, when the lead reaches 156°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 26 Feb, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Thu 9 Mar ran from sunset 18:07 Thu to sunrise 06:36, 12 h 29 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 49 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:36 to 18:09, 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 night here, 18:09 to 06:33 Sat, 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 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 3 at 113°20′. It leaves at 13:28, for Magha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 325.7° + 116.2° = 441.9°, one full turn and 81.9°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 80°00′–93°20′ is the 7th, Sukarma. It ends at 01:48 Sat, then Dhriti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Trayodashi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava ended at 05:42, when the lead reached 150°; Taitila runs until 17:20.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:36 to 06:33 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.

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: Kumbha gives Phalguna. The Sun enters Meena on 14 Mar, inside the month. The next new moon, 28 Mar, finds it in Meena and begins Chaitra.

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 26 Feb, with the Sun in Kumbha, began Phalguna. This Shukla paksha reads Phalguna in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 7 Apr 2016, 14:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 331.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2073; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1938.
