How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 21 Dec? Shukla Trayodashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 152.8°: Shukla Trayodashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 144°–156° is the 13th, Shukla Trayodashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:58 here. Dwadashi ended at 14:36 Tue, before it. Trayodashi ends at 13:03, when the lead reaches 156°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 21 Dec? 05:13–06:05
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:13–06:05.
The night of Tue 20 Dec ran from sunset 17:56 Tue to sunrise 06:58, 13 h 2 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 52 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 21 Dec? 12:05–12:49
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 12:05–12:49.
Daylight here, 06:58 to 17:56, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 12:05–12:49: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 21 Dec?
06:58–08:20 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 06:58 to 17:56, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 22 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 17:56 to 06:58 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 37 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
Daylight in 8 parts
When is Rahu Kaal on Wed 21 Dec? 12:27–13:49
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:27–13:49.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 21 Dec? 08:20–09:42
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 08:20–09:42.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 21 Dec? 11:05–12:27
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 11:05–12:27.
Daylight here runs 06:58 to 17:56, 10 h 58 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 22 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Wednesday Rahu Kaal is the 5th part, Yamaganda the 2nd and Gulikai Kalam the 4th.
Sunrise and sunset
What time is sunrise on Wed 21 Dec? 06:58
Day here: sunrise 06:58, sunset 17:56, 10 h 58 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 21 Dec? 17:56
Day here: sunrise 06:58, sunset 17:56, 10 h 58 m of daylight.
Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 10 h 58 m and the night until the next sunrise 13 h 2 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 21 Dec? Krittika
At sunrise the Moon was at 38.5°: Krittika, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Krittika spans 26°40′–40°00′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 36°40′. It leaves at 09:38, for Rohini.
Which yoga is it on Wed 21 Dec? Sadhya
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 284.2°: Sadhya.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 245.7° + 38.5° = 284.2°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 280°00′–293°20′ is the 22nd, Sadhya. It ends at 21:51, then Shubha.
Which karana is it on Wed 21 Dec? Taitila
At sunrise the lead was 152.8°: the second half of Trayodashi, Taitila.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Trayodashi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava ended at 01:48, when the lead reached 150°; Taitila runs until 13:03.
Which vara is Wed 21 Dec, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:58 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:58 to 06:58 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 21 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 9 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika: Margashirsha.
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: Vrishchika gives Margashirsha. The Sun enters Dhanu on 15 Dec, inside the month. The next new moon, 8 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.
Which Hindu month is Wed 21 Dec in (purnimanta)? Margashirsha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Margashirsha.
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 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 21 Dec in? Vikram 2045 · Shaka 1910
Vikram Samvat 2045 began at the Chaitra new moon of 18 Mar 1988.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 18 Mar 1988, 07:32 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 271.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2045; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1910.
Moonrise and moonset
What time is moonrise on Wed 21 Dec? 16:07
The Moon rises here at 16:07.
What time is moonset on Wed 21 Dec? 06:01 Thu
The Moon was down at sunrise and rises at 16:07, in this day's daylight; it sets again at 06:01 Thu.
