Panchang in Pāthardi, Maharashtra Mon 1 Sep 2031

Purnima follows the tithi at sunrise. Purnima runs from 18:03 on Sun 31 Aug to 14:50 on Mon 1 Sep, so it holds sunrise only on Mon 1 Sep, at 06:14. No text giving Purnima’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.

Purnima: every date in Pāthardi

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 168°–180° is the 15th, Shukla Purnima. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:14 here. Chaturdashi ended at 18:03 Sun, before it. Purnima ends at 14:50, when the lead reaches 180°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 18 Aug, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Sun 31 Aug ran from sunset 18:45 Sun to sunrise 06:14, 11 h 29 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 45 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:14 to 18:44, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 33 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:44 to 06:14 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 26 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′. Shatabhisha spans 306°40′–320°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 306°40′. It leaves at 23:53, for Purva Bhadrapada.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 134.1° + 309.2° = 443.3°, one full turn and 83.3°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 80°00′–93°20′ is the 7th, Sukarma. It ends at 21:35, then Dhriti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Purnima is Vishti and the second Bava. Vishti ended at 04:25, when the lead reached 174°; Bava runs until 14:50.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:14 to 06:14 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 18 Aug 10:02 Mon to 17 Sep 00:16 Wed the Sun stayed in Simha, entering Kanya at 17 Sep 14:49 Wed, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Bhadrapada, before Bhadrapada 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 Aug, with the Sun in Simha, began Bhadrapada (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Bhadrapada (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 23 Mar 2031, 09:19 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 156.1° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2088; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1953.
