Panchang in Saatlı, Azerbaijan Wed 24 Jan 2035

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 180°–192° is the 16th, Krishna Pratipada. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 08:01 here. Purnima ended at 00:16, before it. Pratipada ends at 21:45, when the lead reaches 192°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 24 Jan, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Tue 23 Jan ran from sunset 17:54 Tue to sunrise 08:01, 14 h 7 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 56 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 08:01 to 17:55, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 14 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:55 to 08:00 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 45 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′. Pushya spans 93°20′–106°40′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 103°20′. It leaves at 12:29, for Ashlesha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 279.6° + 104° = 383.6°, one full turn and 23.6°. 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 12:46, then Ayushmana.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Pratipada is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava runs until 10:57, when the lead reaches 186°; Kaulava until 21:45.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 08:01 to 08:00 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: Dhanu gives Pausha. The Sun enters Makara on 14 Jan, inside the month. The next new moon, 8 Feb, finds it in Makara and begins Magha.

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 8 Feb, with the Sun in Makara, begins Magha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Magha here, and Pausha in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 20 Mar 2034, 14:14 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 304.1° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2091; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1956.
