Panchang in Pāthardi, Maharashtra Mon 17 May 2038

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, 05:53 here. Dwadashi ended at 10:42 Sun, before it. Trayodashi ends at 07:07, when the lead reaches 156°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 4 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Chaturdashi began at 07:07 and ended at 03:28 Tue, between the sunrises of 05:53 and 05:53 Tue. Monday reads Trayodashi and Tuesday reads Purnima: Chaturdashi is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Sun 16 May ran from sunset 18:57 Sun to sunrise 05:53, 10 h 56 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:53 to 18:57, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 38 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:57 to 05:53 Tue, 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 fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Swati spans 186°40′–200°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 186°40′. It leaves at 02:20 Tue, for Vishakha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 31.8° + 187.1° = 218.9°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 17:23, then Variyana.

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 20:56 Sun, when the lead reached 150°; Taitila runs until 07:07.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:53 to 05:53 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: Mesha gives Vaishakha. The Sun enters Vrishabha on 15 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 3 Jun, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.

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 4 May, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha. This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 4 Apr 2038, 22:13 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 41.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2095; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1960.
