How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 5 May? Krishna Chaturdashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 343.7°: Krishna Chaturdashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 336°–348° is the 29th, Krishna Chaturdashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:39 here. Trayodashi ended at 16:01 Tue, before it. Chaturdashi ends at 14:47, when the lead reaches 348°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 21 Apr, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 5 May? 04:53–05:46
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:53–05:46.
The night of Tue 4 May ran from sunset 17:27 Tue to sunrise 06:39, 13 h 12 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 52 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 5 May? 11:41–12:24
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:41–12:24.
Daylight here, 06:39 to 17:26, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:41–12:24: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 5 May?
06:39–08:00 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 06:39 to 17:26, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 20 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 17:26 to 06:40 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 39 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
Daylight in 8 parts
When is Rahu Kaal on Wed 5 May? 12:02–13:23
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:02–13:23.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 5 May? 08:00–09:21
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 08:00–09:21.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 5 May? 10:42–12:02
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 10:42–12:02.
Daylight here runs 06:39 to 17:26, 10 h 47 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 20 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Wednesday Rahu Kaal is the 5th part, Yamaganda the 2nd and Gulikai Kalam the 4th.
Sunrise and sunset
What time is sunrise on Wed 5 May? 06:39
Day here: sunrise 06:39, sunset 17:26, 10 h 47 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 5 May? 17:26
Day here: sunrise 06:39, sunset 17:26, 10 h 47 m of daylight.
Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 10 h 47 m and the night until the next sunrise 13 h 14 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 5 May? Ashwini
At sunrise the Moon was at 3.9°: Ashwini, pada 2.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Ashwini spans 0°00′–13°20′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 3°20′. It leaves at 23:02, for Bharani.
Which yoga is it on Wed 5 May? Priti
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 24.1°: Priti.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 20.2° + 3.9° = 24.1°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 13°20′–26°40′ is the 2nd, Priti. It ends at 10:45, then Ayushmana.
Which karana is it on Wed 5 May? Shakuni
At sunrise the lead was 343.7°: the second half of Chaturdashi, Shakuni.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturdashi is Vishti and the second Shakuni. Vishti ended at 03:29, when the lead reached 342°; Shakuni runs until 14:47.
Which vara is Wed 5 May, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:39 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:39 to 06:40 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 5 May in (amanta)? Chaitra
This month began at the new moon of 7 Apr, with the Sun in Meena: Chaitra.
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: Meena gives Chaitra. The Sun enters Mesha on 14 Apr, inside the month. The next new moon, 6 May, finds it in Mesha and begins Vaishakha.
Which Hindu month is Wed 5 May in (purnimanta)? Vaishakha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waning half already belongs to Vaishakha.
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 May, with the Sun in Mesha, begins Vaishakha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Vaishakha here, and Chaitra in the amanta count.
Which samvat year is Wed 5 May in? Vikram 2084 · Shaka 1949
Vikram Samvat 2084 began at the Chaitra new moon of 7 Apr 2027.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 7 Apr 2027, 01:51 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 27.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2084; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1949.
Moonrise and moonset
What time is moonrise on Wed 5 May? 06:34 Thu
The Moon rises here at 06:34 Thu.
What time is moonset on Wed 5 May? 16:28
The Moon was up at sunrise and set at 16:28; it rises again at 06:34 Thu, so this day's moonrise falls in its night.
