Panchang in Myjava, Trenčín Region, Slovakia Wed 28 Jun 2034

Shiva’s Pradosh puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Trayodashi runs from 15:00 on Wed 28 Jun to 16:59 on Thu 29 Jun, so only Wednesday’s pradosha (20:56–22:31) falls within it. No text giving Pradosh Vrat’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.

Pradosh Vrat: every date in Myjava

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 132°–144° is the 12th, Shukla Dwadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 04:48 here. Ekadashi ended at 12:42 Tue, before it. Dwadashi ends at 15:00, when the lead reaches 144°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 16 Jun, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Tue 27 Jun ran from sunset 20:56 Tue to sunrise 04:48, 7 h 52 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 31 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 04:48 to 20:56, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 2 h 1 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 20:56 to 04:49 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 59 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 4 at 210°. It leaves at 08:28, for Anuradha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 72.2° + 211.5° = 283.7°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 280°00′–293°20′ is the 22nd, Sadhya. It ends at 22:43, then Shubha.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwadashi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava ended at 01:53, when the lead reached 138°; Balava runs until 15:00.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 04:48 to 04:49 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 16 Jun 12:25 Fri to 15 Jul 20:15 Sat the Sun stayed in Mithuna, entering Karka at 16 Jul 21:17 Sun, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Ashadha, before Ashadha 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 16 Jun, with the Sun in Mithuna, began Ashadha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Ashadha (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 20 Mar 2034, 11:14 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 96.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2091; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1956.
