Panchang in Myjava, Trenčín Region, Slovakia Thu 28 Jun 2040

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 216°–228° is the 19th, Krishna Chaturthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 03:49 here. Tritiya ended at 09:10 Wed, before it. Chaturthi ends at 05:56, when the lead reaches 228°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 24 Jun, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Panchami began at 05:56 and ended at 03:12 Fri, between the sunrises of 03:49 and 03:49 Fri. Thursday reads Chaturthi and Friday reads Shashthi: Panchami is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Wed 27 Jun ran from sunset 19:56 Wed to sunrise 03:49, 7 h 53 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 31 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 03:49 to 19:56, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 2 h 0 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 19:56 to 03:49 Fri, 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′. Dhanishtha spans 293°20′–306°40′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 296°40′. It leaves at 15:45, for Shatabhisha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 72.6° + 299.4° = 372°, one full turn and 12°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 0°00′–13°20′ is the 1st, Vishkambha. It ends at 05:50, then Priti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturthi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava ended at 19:30 Wed, when the lead reached 222°; Balava runs until 05:56.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 03:49 to 03:49 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: Vrishabha gives Jyeshtha. The Sun enters Mithuna on 14 Jun, inside the month. The next new moon, 9 Jul, finds it in Mithuna and begins Ashadha.

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 9 Jul, with the Sun in Mithuna, begins Ashadha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Ashadha here, and Jyeshtha in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 11 Apr 2040, 15:00 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 74.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2097; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1962.
