Panchang in Myjava, Trenčín Region, Slovakia Sun 17 Jan 2038

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It holds both sunrises, 07:36 on Sat 16 Jan and 07:35 on Sun 17 Jan. Ekadashi (06:36 Sat 16 Jan to 07:38 Sun 17 Jan) and Dwadashi (07:38 Sun 17 Jan to 07:59 Mon 18 Jan) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Sun 17 Jan. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Sat 16 Jan Dashami lasts until 06:36, inside it (06:00–07:36); on Sun 17 Jan Ekadashi holds all of it.

Pausha Putrada Ekadashi: every date in Myjava

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 120°–132° is the 11th, Shukla Ekadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:35 here. Dashami ended at 06:36 Sat, before it. Ekadashi ends at 07:38, when the lead reaches 132°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 5 Jan, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Ekadashi began at 06:36 Sat, before sunrise at 07:36 Sat, and ends at 07:38, after the next sunrise at 07:35. Both days read Ekadashi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Sat 16 Jan ran from sunset 16:22 Sat to sunrise 07:35, 15 h 13 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 1 h 0 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 07:35 to 16:23, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 6 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 16:23 to 07:35 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 54 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′. Rohini spans 40°00′–53°20′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 43°20′. It leaves at 23:33, for Mrigashira.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 272.9° + 44.8° = 317.7°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 306°40′–320°00′ is the 24th, Shukla. It ends at 11:39, then Brahma.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ekadashi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 19:12 Sat, when the lead reached 126°; Vishti runs until 07:38.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:35 to 07:35 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.

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, 4 Feb, 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 5 Jan, 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: 17 Mar 2037, 00:36 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 300.6° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2094; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1959.
