Panchang in Myjava, Trenčín Region, Slovakia Tue 1 Mar 1983

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, 06:32 here. Dwitiya ended at 04:04, before it. Tritiya ends at 01:55 Wed, when the lead reaches 216°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 27 Feb, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.

Sunrise here, 06:47, came before Dwitiya ended at 08:34: this day reads Dwitiya. Tritiya ends at 06:25 Wed, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Tritiya: it is kshaya.

Sunrise here, 06:32, came after Dwitiya ended at 04:04: this day reads Tritiya.

The night of Mon 28 Feb ran from sunset 17:30 Mon to sunrise 06:32, 13 h 2 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 52 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:32 to 17:32, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 22 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:32 to 06:30 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 37 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′. Hasta spans 160°00′–173°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 160°. It leaves at 02:04 Wed, for Chitra.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 316.4° + 161.8° = 478.2°, one full turn and 118.2°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 106°40′–120°00′ is the 9th, Shula. It ends at 09:16, then Ganda.

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 14:55, when the lead reaches 210°; Vishti until 01:55 Wed.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:32 to 06:30 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 13 Feb 01:31 Sun to 14 Mar 18:43 Mon the Sun stayed in Kumbha, entering Meena at 14 Mar 19:44 Mon, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Phalguna, before Phalguna 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 14 Mar, with the Sun in Kumbha, begins Phalguna (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Phalguna (Adhik) here, and Phalguna (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 25 Mar 1982, 11:17 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 335.6° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2039; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1904.
