Panchang in Pāthardi, Maharashtra Sun 8 Jun 2064

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 276°–288° is the 24th, Krishna Navami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:50 here. Ashtami ended at 18:06 Sat, before it. Navami ends at 20:35, when the lead reaches 288°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 30 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Sat 7 Jun ran from sunset 19:05 Sat to sunrise 05:50, 10 h 45 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:50 to 19:06, 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, 19:06 to 05:50 Mon, 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 Bhadrapada spans 333°20′–346°40′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 333°20′. It leaves at 06:18 Mon, for Revati.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 53.3° + 334.6° = 387.9°, one full turn and 27.9°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 26°40′–40°00′ is the 3rd, Ayushmana. It ends at 04:35 Mon, then Saubhagya.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Navami is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila runs until 07:21, when the lead reaches 282°; Garaja until 20:35.

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

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 16 May 15:25 Fri to 15 Jun 03:51 Sun the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 15 Jun 06:36 Sun, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Jyeshtha, before Jyeshtha 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 15 Jun, with the Sun in Vrishabha, begins Jyeshtha (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) here, and Jyeshtha (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 18 Mar 2064, 07:15 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 79.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2121; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1986.
