Panchang in Myjava, Trenčín Region, Slovakia Sun 27 Sep 2020

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sun 27 Sep only, at 06:43: Sun 27 Sep. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 15:30 Sat, before it (05:07–06:43).

Padmini Ekadashi: every date in Myjava

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 120°–132° is the 11th, Shukla Ekadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:43 here. Dashami ended at 15:30 Sat, before it. Ekadashi ends at 16:16, when the lead reaches 132°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 17 Sep, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Sat 26 Sep ran from sunset 18:38 Sat to sunrise 06:43, 12 h 5 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:43 to 18:36, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 29 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:36 to 06:45 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 31 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′. Shravana spans 280°00′–293°20′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 286°40′. It leaves at 17:19, for Dhanishtha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 160.4° + 287.8° = 448.2°, one full turn and 88.2°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 80°00′–93°20′ is the 7th, Sukarma. It ends at 15:50, then Dhriti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ekadashi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 03:50, when the lead reached 126°; Vishti runs until 16:16.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:43 to 06:45 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 17 Sep 13:00 Thu to 16 Oct 21:31 Fri the Sun stayed in Kanya, entering Tula at 17 Oct 03:35 Sat, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Ashwina, before Ashwina 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 17 Sep, with the Sun in Kanya, began Ashwina (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Ashwina (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 24 Mar 2020, 10:28 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 180.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2077; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1942.
