How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Fri 18 Dec? Shukla Navami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 101.5°: Shukla Navami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 96°–108° is the 9th, Shukla Navami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:57 here. Ashtami ended at 20:56 Thu, before it. Navami ends at 20:44, when the lead reaches 108°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Fri 18 Dec? 05:54–06:56
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:54–06:56.
The night of Thu 17 Dec ran from sunset 16:40 Thu to sunrise 07:57, 15 h 17 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 1 h 1 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

When is Dur Muhurtam on Fri 18 Dec? 12:36–13:11

Which nakshatra is it on Fri 18 Dec? Uttara Bhadrapada
At sunrise the Moon was at 343.5°: Uttara Bhadrapada, pada 4.
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 4 at 343°20′. It leaves at 13:40, for Revati.
Which yoga is it on Fri 18 Dec? Vyatipata
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 585.5°, one turn and 225.5°: Vyatipata.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 242° + 343.5° = 585.5°, one full turn and 225.5°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 09:49, then Variyana.
Which karana is it on Fri 18 Dec? Balava
At sunrise the lead was 101.5°: the first half of Navami, Balava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Navami is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava runs until 08:57, when the lead reaches 102°; Kaulava until 20:44.
Which vara is Fri 18 Dec, and from when? Shukrawara
This day began at sunrise, 07:57 on Friday: Shukrawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:57 to 07:57 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.
Which Hindu month is Fri 18 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 9 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika: Margashirsha.
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: Vrishchika gives Margashirsha. The Sun enters Dhanu on 16 Dec, inside the month. The next new moon, 7 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.
Which Hindu month is Fri 18 Dec in (purnimanta)? Margashirsha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Margashirsha.
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 9 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Fri 18 Dec in? Vikram 2083 · Shaka 1948
Vikram Samvat 2083 began at the Chaitra new moon of 19 Mar 2026.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 2026, 04:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 267.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
