Purnima: every date in Khmelnytskyi

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 168°–180° is the 15th, Shukla Purnima. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:45 here. Chaturdashi ended at 09:18 Sun, before it. Purnima ends at 11:29, when the lead reaches 180°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 Nov, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Sun 29 Nov ran from sunset 16:16 Sun to sunrise 07:45, 15 h 29 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 1 h 1 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 07:45 to 16:15, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 3 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 16:15 to 07:46 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 56 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′. Rohini spans 40°00′–53°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 40°. It leaves at 05:00 Tue, for Mrigashira.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 224.3° + 42.6° = 266.9°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 266°40′–280°00′ is the 21st, Siddha. It ends at 07:37 Tue, then Sadhya.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Purnima is Vishti and the second Bava. Vishti ended at 22:26 Sun, when the lead reached 174°; Bava runs until 11:29.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:45 to 07:46 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.

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: Tula gives Kartika. The Sun enters Vrishchika on 16 Nov, inside the month. The next new moon, 14 Dec, finds it in Vrishchika and begins Margashirsha.

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 15 Nov, with the Sun in Tula, began Kartika. This Shukla paksha reads Kartika in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 24 Mar 2020, 11:28 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 244.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2077; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1942.
