Panchang in Myjava, Trenčín Region, Slovakia Wed 4 Mar 2037

The Sankashti fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 14:46 on Wed 4 Mar to 12:02 on Thu 5 Mar, so it holds moonrise only on Wed 4 Mar, at 20:56. No text giving Sankashti Chaturthi’s time was found; moonrise is Tithika’s convention.

Sankashti Chaturthi: every date in Myjava

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 204°–216° is the 18th, Krishna Tritiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:25 here. Dwitiya ended at 18:02 Tue, before it. Tritiya ends at 14:46, when the lead reaches 216°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 2 Mar, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Tue 3 Mar ran from sunset 17:36 Tue to sunrise 06:25, 12 h 49 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 51 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:25 to 17:38, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 24 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:38 to 06:23 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 35 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′. Hasta spans 160°00′–173°20′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 170°. It leaves at 10:31, for Chitra.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 319.6° + 170.8° = 490.4°, one full turn and 130.4°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 120°00′–133°20′ is the 10th, Ganda. It ends at 10:52, then Vriddhi.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Tritiya is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 04:21, when the lead reached 210°; Vishti runs until 14:46.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:25 to 06:23 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: Kumbha gives Phalguna. The Sun enters Meena on 14 Mar, inside the month. The next new moon, 17 Mar, finds it in Meena and begins Chaitra.

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 Mar, with the Sun in Meena, begins Chaitra. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Chaitra here, and Phalguna in the amanta count.

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 336.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2093; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1958.
