The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 156°–168° is the 14th, Shukla Chaturdashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:48 here. Trayodashi ended at 09:16 Fri, before it. Chaturdashi ends at 08:36, when the lead reaches 168°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 18 Sep, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Fri 30 Sep ran from sunset 17:31 Fri to sunrise 05:48, 12 h 17 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 49 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:48 to 17:29, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 27 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:29 to 05:50 Sun, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 32 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′. Purva Bhadrapada spans 320°00′–333°20′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 330°. It leaves at 11:46, for Uttara Bhadrapada.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 163.5° + 330° = 493.5°, one full turn and 133.5°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 133°20′–146°40′ is the 11th, Vriddhi. It ends at 04:09 Sun, then Dhruva.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturdashi is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja ended at 20:53 Fri, when the lead reached 162°; Vanija runs until 08:36.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:48 to 05:50 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 18 Sep 09:23 Sun to 17 Oct 20:09 Mon the Sun stayed in Kanya, entering Tula at 18 Oct 23:25 Mon, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Ashwina, before Ashwina 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 18 Sep, with the Sun in Kanya, began Ashwina (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Ashwina (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 24 Mar 2039, 18:59 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 184° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2096; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1961.
