Panchang in Khmelnytskyi, Ukraine Thu 23 Jan 2031

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 0°–12° is the 1st, Shukla Pratipada. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:55 here. Amavasya ended at 06:31, before it. Pratipada ends at 03:16 Fri, when the lead reaches 12°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 23 Jan, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.

Sunrise here, 07:13, came before Amavasya ended at 10:01: this day reads Amavasya. Pratipada ends at 06:46 Fri, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Pratipada: it is kshaya.

The night of Wed 22 Jan ran from sunset 16:51 Wed to sunrise 07:55, 15 h 4 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 1 h 0 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 07:55 to 16:52, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 7 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 16:52 to 07:54 Fri, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 52 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′. Uttara Ashadha spans 266°40′–280°00′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 276°40′. It leaves at 08:39, for Shravana.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 278.7° + 279.5° = 558.2°, one full turn and 198.2°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 186°40′–200°00′ is the 15th, Vajra. It ends at 10:32, then Siddhi.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Pratipada is Kinstughna and the second Bava. Kinstughna runs until 16:51, when the lead reaches 6°; Bava until 03:16 Fri.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:55 to 07:54 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: Makara gives Magha. The Sun enters Kumbha on 13 Feb, inside the month. The next new moon, 21 Feb, finds it in Kumbha and begins Phalguna.

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 23 Jan, with the Sun in Makara, began Magha. This Shukla paksha reads Magha in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 3 Apr 2030, 01:02 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 289.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2087; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1952.
