How each value is worked out

Which tithi is on Mon 17 Dec? Shukla Dashami

At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 109.5°: Shukla Dashami.

Earth at the centre · Sun fixed at the top · Moon moves counter-clockwise · not to scale

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 108°–120° is the 10th, Shukla Dashami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 08:06 here. Navami ended at 04:59, before it. Dashami ends at 05:27 Tue, when the lead reaches 120°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 7 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

Why does New Delhi read Navami?

New Delhi reads Navami, Polatlı reads Dashami.

Time runs down, the same instant across both columns · each place on its own clock · dashed: tithi changes

The night of Sun 16 Dec ran from sunset 17:28 Sun to sunrise 08:06, 14 h 38 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 58 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Which choghadiya is good on Mon 17 Dec?

Day above the line, night below · clockwise from sunrise

Daylight here, 08:06 to 17:29, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 10 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:29 to 08:06 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 49 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

Daylight in 8 parts

When is Rahu Kaal on Mon 17 Dec? 09:16–10:26

Daylight here runs 08:06 to 17:29, 9 h 23 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 10 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Monday Rahu Kaal is the 2nd part, Yamaganda the 4th and Gulikai Kalam the 6th.

Sunrise and sunset

What time is sunrise on Mon 17 Dec? 08:06

Day here: sunrise 08:06, sunset 17:29, 9 h 23 m of daylight.

What time is sunset on Mon 17 Dec? 17:29

Day here: sunrise 08:06, sunset 17:29, 9 h 23 m of daylight.

Day above the line, night below · clockwise from sunrise · inner arc: Moon above the horizon

Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 9 h 23 m and the night until the next sunrise 14 h 37 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Mon 17 Dec? Revati

At sunrise the Moon was at 350.6°: Revati, pada 2.

Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · 0° at the top, counter-clockwise

The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Revati spans 346°40′–360°00′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 350°. It leaves at 01:46 Tue, for Ashwini.

Which yoga is it on Mon 17 Dec? Variyana

At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 591.7°, one turn and 231.7°: Variyana.

Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · 0° at the top, counter-clockwise

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 241.1° + 350.6° = 591.7°, one full turn and 231.7°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 226°40′–240°00′ is the 18th, Variyana. It ends at 22:37, then Parigha.

Which karana is it on Mon 17 Dec? Taitila

At sunrise the lead was 109.5°: the first half of Dashami, Taitila.

Earth at the centre · Sun fixed at the top · Moon moves counter-clockwise · each 12° tithi halved into karanas · not to scale

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dashami is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila runs until 17:19, when the lead reaches 114°; Garaja until 05:27 Tue.

Which vara is Mon 17 Dec, and from when? Somawara

This day began at sunrise, 08:06 on Monday: Somawara.

One turn of the wheel is one vara, sunrise to sunrise · clockwise

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 08:06 to 08:06 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.

Which Hindu month is Mon 17 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha

This month began at the new moon of 7 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika: Margashirsha.

Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · ring: the Sun's yearly path in 12 rashis of 30°, numbered from 0° · Sun's path from new moon to new moon

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, 6 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.

Which Hindu month is Mon 17 Dec in (purnimanta)? Margashirsha

Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Margashirsha.

Time runs left to right · amanta: new moon to new moon · purnimanta: full moon to full moon

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 7 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.

Which samvat year is Mon 17 Dec in? Vikram 2075 · Shaka 1940

Vikram Samvat 2075 began at the Chaitra new moon of 17 Mar 2018.

Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · ring: the Sun's yearly path in 12 rashis of 30°, numbered from 0° · Sun's path since the year began

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 17 Mar 2018, 16:11 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 268.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2075; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1940.
