Panchang in Myshkin, Yaroslavl Oblast, Russia Mon 10 Jul 2028

The Sankashti fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 01:48 on Mon 10 Jul to 04:04 on Tue 11 Jul, so it holds moonrise only on Mon 10 Jul, at 22:12. No text giving Sankashti Chaturthi’s time was found; moonrise is Tithika’s convention.

Sankashti Chaturthi: every date in Myshkin

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, 03:40 here. Tritiya ended at 01:48, before it. Chaturthi ends at 04:04 Tue, when the lead reaches 228°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 6 Jul, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Chaturthi began at 01:48, before sunrise at 03:40, and ends at 04:04 Tue, after the next sunrise at 03:42 Tue. Both days read Chaturthi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Sun 9 Jul ran from sunset 21:22 Sun to sunrise 03:40, 6 h 18 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 25 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 03:40 to 21:20, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 2 h 12 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 21:20 to 03:42 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 47 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 3 at 300°. It leaves at 15:15, for Shatabhisha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 84° + 300.9° = 384.9°, one full turn and 24.9°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 13°20′–26°40′ is the 2nd, Priti. It ends at 06:52, then Ayushmana.

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 runs until 14:54, when the lead reaches 222°; Balava until 04:04 Tue.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 03:40 to 03:42 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.

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: Mithuna gives Ashadha. The Sun enters Karka on 16 Jul, inside the month. The next new moon, 22 Jul, finds it in Karka and begins Shravana.

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 22 Jul, with the Sun in Karka, begins Shravana. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Shravana here, and Ashadha in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 26 Mar 2028, 07:31 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 102.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2085; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1950.
