Panchang in Pāthardi, Maharashtra Tue 12 Jun 2046

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 84°–96° is the 8th, Shukla Ashtami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:50 here. Saptami ended at 10:03 Mon, before it. Ashtami ends at 07:50, when the lead reaches 96°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 4 Jun, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Navami began at 07:50 and ended at 05:33 Wed, between the sunrises of 05:50 and 05:51 Wed. Tuesday reads Ashtami and Wednesday reads Dashami: Navami is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Mon 11 Jun ran from sunset 19:07 Mon to sunrise 05:50, 10 h 43 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 42 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:50 to 19:07, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 39 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 19:07 to 05:51 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 20 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′. Uttara Phalguni spans 146°40′–160°00′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 150°. It leaves at 19:57, for Hasta.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 56.7° + 151.6° = 208.3°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 200°00′–213°20′ is the 16th, Siddhi. It ends at 13:40, then Vyatipata.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ashtami is Vishti and the second Bava. Vishti ended at 20:57 Mon, when the lead reached 90°; Bava runs until 07:50.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:50 to 05:51 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.

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: Vrishabha gives Jyeshtha. The Sun enters Mithuna on 15 Jun, inside the month. The next new moon, 4 Jul, finds it in Mithuna and begins Ashadha.

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 Jun, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha. This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 6 Apr 2046, 17:21 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 64.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2103; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1968.
