Panchang in Myjava, Trenčín Region, Slovakia Wed 30 Dec 2020

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 180°–192° is the 16th, Krishna Pratipada. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:42 here. Purnima ended at 04:28, before it. Pratipada ends at 05:00 Thu, when the lead reaches 192°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 30 Dec, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.

The night of Tue 29 Dec ran from sunset 16:01 Tue to sunrise 07:42, 15 h 41 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 1 h 2 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 07:42 to 16:01, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 2 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 16:01 to 07:42 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 57 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′. Ardra spans 66°40′–80°00′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 73°20′. It leaves at 14:25, for Punarvasu.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 254.9° + 76.5° = 331.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 320°00′–333°20′ is the 25th, Brahma. It ends at 11:12, then Indra.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Pratipada is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava runs until 16:48, when the lead reaches 186°; Kaulava until 05:00 Thu.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:42 to 07:42 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

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: Vrishchika gives Margashirsha. The Sun enters Dhanu on 15 Dec, inside the month. The next new moon, 13 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.

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 13 Jan, with the Sun in Dhanu, begins Pausha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Pausha here, and Margashirsha in the amanta count.

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 274.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2077; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1942.
