Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 04:42 on Fri 23 May, after that sunrise (04:26), and ends at 02:00 on Sat 24 May, before the next (04:25 Sat): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Fri 23 May.

Apara Ekadashi: every date in Progress

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 288°–300° is the 25th, Krishna Dashami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 04:26 here. Navami ended at 06:52 Thu, before it. Dashami ends at 04:42, when the lead reaches 300°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 13 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Ekadashi began at 04:42 and ended at 02:00 Sat, between the sunrises of 04:26 and 04:25 Sat. Friday reads Dashami and Saturday reads Dwadashi: Ekadashi is a kshaya tithi here.

Sunrise here, 05:26, came after Dashami ended at 01:12: this day reads Ekadashi.

Progress · UTC+9

Sunrise here, 04:26, came before Dashami ended at 04:42: this day reads Dashami. Ekadashi ends at 02:00 Sat, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Ekadashi: it is kshaya.

The night of Thu 22 May ran from sunset 20:08 Thu to sunrise 04:26, 8 h 18 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 33 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 04:26 to 20:09, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 57 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 20:09 to 04:25 Sat, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 2 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 Bhadrapada spans 333°20′–346°40′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 336°40′. It leaves at 19:32, for Revati.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 37.7° + 337.6° = 375.3°, one full turn and 15.3°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 13°20′–26°40′ is the 2nd, Priti. It ends at 22:06, then Ayushmana.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dashami is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 17:51 Thu, when the lead reached 294°; Vishti runs until 04:42.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 04:26 to 04:25 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: Mesha gives Vaishakha. The Sun enters Vrishabha on 15 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 27 May, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.

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 27 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, begins Jyeshtha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Jyeshtha here, and Vaishakha in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 29 Mar 2025, 19:57 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 52.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2082; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1947.
