Panchang in Saatlı, Azerbaijan Thu 10 Dec 2026

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 12°–24° is the 2nd, Shukla Dwitiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:56 here. Pratipada ended at 07:16, before it. Dwitiya ends at 09:53 Fri, when the lead reaches 24°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Dwitiya began at 07:16, before sunrise at 07:56, and ends at 09:53 Fri, after the next sunrise at 07:57 Fri. Both days read Dwitiya: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Wed 9 Dec ran from sunset 17:21 Wed to sunrise 07:56, 14 h 35 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 58 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 07:56 to 17:21, 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, 17:21 to 07:57 Fri, 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.

The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Mula spans 240°00′–253°20′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 243°20′. It leaves at 22:28, for Purva Ashadha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 233.9° + 246.2° = 480.1°, one full turn and 120.1°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 120°00′–133°20′ is the 10th, Ganda. It ends at 08:48 Fri, then Vriddhi.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwitiya is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava runs until 20:33, when the lead reaches 18°; Kaulava until 09:53 Fri.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:56 to 07:57 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.

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

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.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 2026, 05:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 259.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
