Panchang in Pāthardi, Maharashtra Mon 11 Aug 2092

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, 06:09 here. Saptami ended at 09:53 Sun, before it. Ashtami ends at 07:43, when the lead reaches 96°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 3 Aug, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Navami began at 07:43 and ended at 05:19 Tue, between the sunrises of 06:09 and 06:09 Tue. Monday reads Ashtami and Tuesday reads Dashami: Navami is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Sun 10 Aug ran from sunset 18:59 Sun to sunrise 06:09, 11 h 10 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 44 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:09 to 18:59, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 36 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:59 to 06:09 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 23 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′. Vishakha spans 200°00′–213°20′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 206°40′. It leaves at 12:48, for Anuradha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 114.2° + 209.4° = 323.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 320°00′–333°20′ is the 25th, Brahma. It ends at 21:27, then Indra.

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 20:50 Sun, when the lead reached 90°; Bava runs until 07:43.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:09 to 06:09 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: Karka gives Shravana. The Sun enters Simha on 17 Aug, inside the month. The next new moon, 2 Sep, finds it in Simha and begins Bhadrapada.

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 3 Aug, with the Sun in Karka, began Shravana. This Shukla paksha reads Shravana in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 7 Apr 2092, 03:12 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 121.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2149; Shaka Samvat numbers it 2014.
