Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Thu 30 Dec only, at 07:42: Thu 30 Dec. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 11:42 Wed, before it (06:06–07:42).

Saphala Ekadashi: every date in Myjava

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 300°–312° is the 26th, Krishna Ekadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:42 here. Dashami ended at 11:42 Wed, before it. Ekadashi ends at 09:10, when the lead reaches 312°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 19 Dec, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Dwadashi began at 09:10 and ended at 06:10 Fri, between the sunrises of 07:42 and 07:42 Fri. Thursday reads Ekadashi and Friday reads Trayodashi: Dwadashi is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Wed 29 Dec ran from sunset 16:00 Wed to sunrise 07:42, 15 h 42 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 Fri, 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′. Vishakha spans 200°00′–213°20′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 203°20′. It leaves at 20:04, for Anuradha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 254.6° + 205.8° = 460.4°, one full turn and 100.4°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 93°20′–106°40′ is the 8th, Dhriti. It ends at 17:18, then Shula.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ekadashi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava ended at 22:30 Wed, when the lead reached 306°; Balava runs until 09:10.

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

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, 2 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 2 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: 12 Apr 2021, 04:30 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 256.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2078; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1943.
