Panchang in Myjava, Trenčín Region, Slovakia Sun 13 Jul 2053

Shiva’s Pradosh puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Trayodashi runs from 06:42 on Sun 13 Jul to 03:08 on Mon 14 Jul, so only Sunday’s pradosha (20:49–22:28) falls within it. No text giving Pradosh Vrat’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.

Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 03:08 on Mon 14 Jul to 23:19 on Mon 14 Jul, between the two nights’ nishitha, touching neither. The Nirnayasindhu then takes the earlier day: Sun 13 Jul. No text giving Masik Shivratri’s time was found; nishitha is Tithika’s convention.

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 312°–324° is the 27th, Krishna Dwadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 04:00 here. Ekadashi ended at 08:52 Sat, before it. Dwadashi ends at 05:42, when the lead reaches 324°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 1 Jul, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Trayodashi began at 05:42 and ended at 02:08 Mon, between the sunrises of 04:00 and 04:01 Mon. Sunday reads Dwadashi and Monday reads Chaturdashi: Trayodashi is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Sat 12 Jul ran from sunset 19:50 Sat to sunrise 04:00, 8 h 10 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 32 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 04:00 to 19:49, 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 night here, 19:49 to 04:01 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 1 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 3 at 46°40′. It leaves at 09:58, for Mrigashira.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 86.6° + 49.6° = 136.2°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 133°20′–146°40′ is the 11th, Vriddhi. It ends at 19:42, then Dhruva.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwadashi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava ended at 19:21 Sat, when the lead reached 318°; Taitila runs until 05:42.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 04:00 to 04:01 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 16 Jun 11:51 Mon to 15 Jul 18:26 Tue the Sun stayed in Mithuna, entering Karka at 16 Jul 17:17 Wed, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Ashadha, before Ashadha 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 15 Jul, with the Sun in Mithuna, begins Ashadha (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Ashadha (Adhik) here, and Ashadha (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 20 Mar 2053, 08:11 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 111.1° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2110; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1975.
