The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 84°–96° is the 8th, Shukla Ashtami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:41 here. Saptami ended at 07:39, before it. Ashtami ends at 09:41 Fri, when the lead reaches 96°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 17 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Ashtami began at 07:39, before sunrise at 07:41, and ends at 09:41 Fri, after the next sunrise at 07:42 Fri. Both days read Ashtami: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Wed 24 Dec ran from sunset 15:57 Wed to sunrise 07:41, 15 h 44 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 1 h 2 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 07:41 to 15:58, 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, 15:58 to 07:42 Fri, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 58 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′. Uttara Bhadrapada spans 333°20′–346°40′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 333°20′. It leaves at 09:27 Fri, for Revati.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 249.7° + 333.7° = 583.4°, one full turn and 223.4°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 13:45, then Variyana.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ashtami is Vishti and the second Bava. Vishti runs until 20:44, when the lead reaches 90°; Bava until 09:41 Fri.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:41 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: Dhanu gives Pausha. The Sun enters Makara on 14 Jan, inside the month. The next new moon, 16 Jan, finds it in Makara and begins Magha.

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 Dec, with the Sun in Dhanu, began Pausha. This Shukla paksha reads Pausha in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 27 Mar 2036, 21:56 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 266.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2093; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1958.
