Panchang in Saatlı, Azerbaijan Tue 16 Oct 2029

Dussehra’s rites are done in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Dashami runs from 03:08 on Tue 16 Oct to 03:53 on Wed 17 Oct, so only Tuesday’s aparahna (13:38–15:51) falls within it.

Dussehra: every date in Saatlı

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, 06:57 here. Navami ended at 03:08, before it. Dashami ends at 03:53 Wed, when the lead reaches 120°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 7 Oct, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Mon 15 Oct ran from sunset 18:06 Mon to sunrise 06:57, 12 h 51 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 51 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:57 to 18:05, 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 night here, 18:05 to 06:58 Wed, 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 fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Shravana spans 280°00′–293°20′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 286°40′. It leaves at 15:52, for Dhanishtha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 178.8° + 288.6° = 467.4°, one full turn and 107.4°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 106°40′–120°00′ is the 9th, Shula. It ends at 05:13 Wed, then Ganda.

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 15:26, when the lead reaches 114°; Garaja until 03:53 Wed.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:57 to 06:58 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.

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: Kanya gives Ashwina. The Sun enters Tula on 17 Oct, inside the month. The next new moon, 6 Nov, finds it in Tula and begins Kartika.

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 Oct, with the Sun in Kanya, began Ashwina. This Shukla paksha reads Ashwina in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 15 Mar 2029, 08:19 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 208.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2086; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1951.
