How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Fri 15 Jan? Shukla Saptami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 81.3°: Shukla Saptami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 72°–84° is the 7th, Shukla Saptami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:17 here. Shashthi ended at 10:29 Thu, before it. Saptami ends at 10:43, when the lead reaches 84°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 7 Jan, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Fri 15 Jan? 03:56–04:37
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 03:56–04:37.
The night of Thu 14 Jan ran from sunset 19:14 Thu to sunrise 05:17, 10 h 3 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 40 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

When is Dur Muhurtam on Fri 15 Jan? 12:43–13:39
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th and 9th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 08:04–09:00 and 12:43–13:39.
Daylight here, 05:17 to 19:13, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 55 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Friday is the 4th and 9th, 08:04–09:00 and 12:43–13:39.
Which choghadiya is good on Fri 15 Jan?
05:17–07:01 is Chara, ruled by Shukra (Venus), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Friday's daylight, counted neutral.
Daylight here, 05:17 to 19:13, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 44 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 19:13 to 05:18 Sat, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 15 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

Which nakshatra is it on Fri 15 Jan? Revati
At sunrise the Moon was at 351.8°: Revati, pada 2.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Revati spans 346°40′–360°00′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 350°. It leaves at 20:21, for Ashwini.
Which yoga is it on Fri 15 Jan? Shiva
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 622.3°, one turn and 262.3°: Shiva.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 270.5° + 351.8° = 622.3°, one full turn and 262.3°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 253°20′–266°40′ is the 20th, Shiva. It ends at 12:48, then Siddha.
Which karana is it on Fri 15 Jan? Vanija
At sunrise the lead was 81.3°: the second half of Saptami, Vanija.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Saptami is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja ended at 22:42 Thu, when the lead reached 78°; Vanija runs until 10:43.
Which vara is Fri 15 Jan, and from when? Shukrawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:17 on Friday: Shukrawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:17 to 05:18 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.
Which Hindu month is Fri 15 Jan in (amanta)? Pausha
This month began at the new moon of 7 Jan, with the Sun in Dhanu: Pausha.
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: Dhanu gives Pausha. The Sun enters Makara on 14 Jan, inside the month. The next new moon, 6 Feb, finds it in Makara and begins Magha.
Which Hindu month is Fri 15 Jan in (purnimanta)? Pausha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Pausha.
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 7 Jan, with the Sun in Dhanu, began Pausha. This Shukla paksha reads Pausha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Fri 15 Jan 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, 03:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 296.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.

What time is moonrise on Fri 15 Jan? 12:03
