How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Tue 16 Feb? Shukla Dashami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 113.8°: Shukla Dashami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 108°–120° is the 10th, Shukla Dashami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:45 here. Navami ended at 19:14 Mon, before it. Dashami ends at 16:49, when the lead reaches 120°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 6 Feb, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Tue 16 Feb? 04:19–05:02
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:19–05:02.
The night of Mon 15 Feb ran from sunset 18:55 Mon to sunrise 05:45, 10 h 50 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 08:23–09:16, and the 7th of the night's 15, 23:15–23:58.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 16 Feb? 23:15–23:58
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 08:23–09:16, and the 7th of the night's 15, 23:15–23:58.

Which choghadiya is good on Tue 16 Feb?
05:45–07:24 is Roga, ruled by Mangala (Mars), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight, counted bad.

Which nakshatra is it on Tue 16 Feb? Mrigashira
At sunrise the Moon was at 56.8°: Mrigashira, pada 2.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Mrigashira spans 53°20′–66°40′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 56°40′. It leaves at 22:08, for Ardra.
Which yoga is it on Tue 16 Feb? Vaidhriti
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 359.8°: Vaidhriti.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 303° + 56.8° = 359.8°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 346°40′–360°00′ is the 27th, Vaidhriti. It ends at 06:04, then Vishkambha.
Which karana is it on Tue 16 Feb? Taitila
At sunrise the lead was 113.8°: the first half of Dashami, Taitila.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dashami is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila runs until 06:05, when the lead reaches 114°; Garaja until 16:49.
Which vara is Tue 16 Feb, and from when? Mangalawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:45 on Tuesday: Mangalawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:45 to 05:46 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.
Which Hindu month is Tue 16 Feb in (amanta)? Magha
This month began at the new moon of 6 Feb, with the Sun in Makara: Magha.
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, 8 Mar, finds it in Kumbha and begins Phalguna.
Which Hindu month is Tue 16 Feb in (purnimanta)? Magha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Magha.
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 6 Feb, with the Sun in Makara, began Magha. This Shukla paksha reads Magha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Tue 16 Feb 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 328.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.

What time is moonrise on Tue 16 Feb? 15:21
