Panchang in Pāthardi, Maharashtra Tue 30 Jul 2069

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It holds both sunrises, 06:05 on Mon 29 Jul and 06:05 on Tue 30 Jul. Ekadashi (04:43 Mon 29 Jul to 06:10 Tue 30 Jul) and Dwadashi (06:10 Tue 30 Jul to 06:57 Wed 31 Jul) are both longer than their day; when both grow, Smartas take the later day: Tue 30 Jul. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: on Mon 29 Jul Dashami lasts until 04:43, inside it (04:29–06:05); on Tue 30 Jul Ekadashi holds all of it.

Padmini Ekadashi: every date in Pāthardi

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 120°–132° is the 11th, Shukla Ekadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:05 here. Dashami ended at 04:43 Mon, before it. Ekadashi ends at 06:10, when the lead reaches 132°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 18 Jul, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Ekadashi began at 04:43 Mon, before sunrise at 06:05 Mon, and ends at 06:10, after the next sunrise at 06:05. Both days read Ekadashi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Mon 29 Jul ran from sunset 19:06 Mon to sunrise 06:05, 10 h 59 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:05 to 19:05, 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.

The night here, 19:05 to 06:05 Wed, 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′. Jyeshtha spans 226°40′–240°00′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 233°20′. It leaves at 16:27, for Mula.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 102.7° + 234.6° = 337.3°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 333°20′–346°40′ is the 26th, Indra. It ends at 22:50, then Vaidhriti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ekadashi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 17:31 Mon, when the lead reached 126°; Vishti runs until 06:10.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:05 to 06:05 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 18 Jul 16:43 Thu to 17 Aug 03:33 Sat the Sun stayed in Karka, entering Simha at 17 Aug 08:30 Sat, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Shravana, before Shravana 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 Jul, with the Sun in Karka, began Shravana (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Shravana (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 23 Mar 2069, 06:44 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 124.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2126; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1991.
