Panchang in Lib, Lib Island, Marshall Islands Thu 4 Jun 2026

The Sankashti fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 03:51 on Thu 4 Jun to 06:00 on Fri 5 Jun, so it holds moonrise only on Thu 4 Jun, at 22:17. No text giving Sankashti Chaturthi’s time was found; moonrise is Tithika’s convention.

Sankashti Chaturthi: every date in Lib

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 216°–228° is the 19th, Krishna Chaturthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:31 here. Tritiya ended at 03:51, before it. Chaturthi ends at 06:00 Fri, when the lead reaches 228°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 31 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Wed 3 Jun ran from sunset 19:05 Wed to sunrise 06:31, 11 h 26 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:31 to 19:06, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 34 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 19:06 to 06:31 Fri, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 25 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′. Purva Ashadha spans 253°20′–266°40′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 263°20′. It leaves at 07:29, for Uttara Ashadha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 49° + 266.2° = 315.2°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 306°40′–320°00′ is the 24th, Shukla. It ends at 15:33, then Brahma.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturthi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava runs until 16:58, when the lead reaches 222°; Balava until 06:00 Fri.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:31 to 06:31 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.

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.

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 Jun, with the Sun in Vrishabha, begins Jyeshtha (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) here, and Jyeshtha (Adhik) in the amanta count.

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 74.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
