How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Mon 18 May? Shukla Dwitiya
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 13.4°: Shukla Dwitiya.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 12°–24° is the 2nd, Shukla Dwitiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:31 here. Pratipada ended at 04:11, before it. Dwitiya ends at 00:23 Tue, when the lead reaches 24°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 17 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Mon 18 May? 04:59–05:45
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:59–05:45.
The night of Sun 17 May ran from sunset 19:02 Sun to sunrise 06:31, 11 h 29 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Mon 18 May? 12:21–13:11
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 12:21–13:11.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Mon 18 May? 13:11–14:01
Dur Muhurtam is the 9th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 13:11–14:01 and 15:42–16:32.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Mon 18 May? 15:42–16:32
Dur Muhurtam is the 9th and 12th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 13:11–14:01 and 15:42–16:32.
Daylight here, 06:31 to 19:02, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Monday is the 9th and 12th, 13:11–14:01 and 15:42–16:32.
Which choghadiya is good on Mon 18 May?
06:31–08:05 is Amrita, ruled by Chandra (the Moon), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Monday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 06:31 to 19:02, 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 night here, 19:02 to 06:31 Tue, 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.

Daylight here runs 06:31 to 19:02, 12 h 31 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 33 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Monday Rahu Kaal is the 2nd part, Yamaganda the 4th and Gulikai Kalam the 6th.

Which nakshatra is it on Mon 18 May? Rohini
At sunrise the Moon was at 46°: Rohini, pada 2.
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 2 at 43°20′. It leaves at 18:02, for Mrigashira.
Which yoga is it on Mon 18 May? Atiganda
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 78.6°: Atiganda.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 32.6° + 46° = 78.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 66°40′–80°00′ is the 6th, Atiganda. It ends at 08:29, then Sukarma.
Which karana is it on Mon 18 May? Balava
At sunrise the lead was 13.4°: the first half of Dwitiya, Balava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwitiya is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava runs until 14:16, when the lead reaches 18°; Kaulava until 00:23 Tue.
Which vara is Mon 18 May, and from when? Somawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:31 on Monday: Somawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:31 to 06:31 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.
Which Hindu month is Mon 18 May in (amanta)? Jyeshtha (Adhik)
No sankranti between the new moons of 17 May and 15 Jun: Adhika Jyeshtha.
A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 17 May 08:01 Sun to 15 Jun 14:54 Mon the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 15 Jun 19:22 Mon, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Jyeshtha, before Jyeshtha itself.
Which Hindu month is Mon 18 May in (purnimanta)? Jyeshtha (Adhik)
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Jyeshtha (Adhik).
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 17 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) in both counts.
Which samvat year is Mon 18 May in? Vikram 2083 · Shaka 1948
Vikram Samvat 2083 began at the Chaitra new moon of 19 Mar 2026.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 2026, 13:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 58.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
