Panchang in Myjava, Trenčín Region, Slovakia Sun 1 Jun 1980

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 204°–216° is the 18th, Krishna Tritiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 04:50 here. Dwitiya ended at 23:35 Sat, before it. Tritiya ends at 23:04, when the lead reaches 216°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 29 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Sat 31 May ran from sunset 20:43 Sat to sunrise 04:50, 8 h 7 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 32 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 04:50 to 20:44, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 59 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 20:44 to 04:50 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 0 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 1 at 253°20′. It leaves at 04:02 Mon, for Uttara Ashadha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 47.2° + 253.9° = 301.1°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 293°20′–306°40′ is the 23rd, Shubha. It ends at 14:23, then Shukla.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Tritiya is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija runs until 11:22, when the lead reaches 210°; Vishti until 23:04.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 04:50 to 04:50 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 14 May 14:00 Wed to 12 Jun 22:38 Thu the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 14 Jun 14:25 Sat, 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 12 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: 16 Mar 1980, 19:55 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 74.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2037; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1902.
