Panchang in Saatlı, Azerbaijan Wed 11 Dec 2030

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 192°–204° is the 17th, Krishna Dwitiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:57 here. Pratipada ended at 05:22, before it. Dwitiya ends at 08:00 Thu, when the lead reaches 204°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 10 Dec, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Dwitiya began at 05:22, before sunrise at 07:57, and ends at 08:00 Thu, after the next sunrise at 07:58 Thu. Both days read Dwitiya: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Tue 10 Dec ran from sunset 17:21 Tue to sunrise 07:57, 14 h 36 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 58 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 07:57 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 07:58 Thu, 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′. Ardra spans 66°40′–80°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 66°40′. It leaves at 08:16 Thu, for Punarvasu.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 234.8° + 68° = 302.8°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 293°20′–306°40′ is the 23rd, Shubha. It ends at 15:05, then Shukla.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwitiya is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila runs until 18:42, when the lead reaches 198°; Garaja until 08:00 Thu.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:57 to 07:58 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

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, 24 Dec, 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 24 Dec, with the Sun in Dhanu, begins Pausha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Pausha here, and Margashirsha in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 3 Apr 2030, 02:02 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 245.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2087; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1952.
