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, 06:05 here. Chaturdashi ended at 03:55, before it. Purnima ends at 05:47 Sat, when the lead reaches 180°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 Jul, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Thu 28 Jul ran from sunset 19:06 Thu 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 19:06, 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, 19:06 to 06:05 Sat, 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′. Uttara Ashadha spans 266°40′–280°00′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 270°. It leaves at 00:05 Sat, for Shravana.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 101.9° + 270.9° = 372.8°, one full turn and 12.8°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 0°00′–13°20′ is the 1st, Vishkambha. It ends at 06:58, then Priti.

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 runs until 16:48, when the lead reaches 174°; Bava until 05:47 Sat.

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

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: Mithuna gives Ashadha. The Sun enters Karka on 16 Jul, inside the month. The next new moon, 14 Aug, finds it in Karka and begins Shravana.

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 Jul, with the Sun in Mithuna, began Ashadha. This Shukla paksha reads Ashadha in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 20 Mar 2072, 01:52 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 126.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2129; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1994.
