Panchang in Same, Kilimanjaro, Tanzania Thu 28 May 2026

Shiva’s Pradosh puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Trayodashi runs from 05:27 on Thu 28 May to 07:21 on Fri 29 May, so only Thursday’s pradosha (18:23–20:48) falls within it. No text giving Pradosh Vrat’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.

Pradosh Vrat: every date in Same

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 144°–156° is the 13th, Shukla Trayodashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:29 here. Dwadashi ended at 05:27, before it. Trayodashi ends at 07:21 Fri, when the lead reaches 156°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 16 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Trayodashi began at 05:27, before sunrise at 06:29, and ends at 07:21 Fri, after the next sunrise at 06:29 Fri. Both days read Trayodashi: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Wed 27 May ran from sunset 18:23 Wed to sunrise 06:29, 12 h 6 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:29 to 18:23, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 29 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:23 to 06:29 Fri, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 30 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′. Swati spans 186°40′–200°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 186°40′. It leaves at 08:08 Fri, for Vishakha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 42.6° + 187.1° = 229.7°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 226°40′–240°00′ is the 18th, Variyana. It ends at 01:24 Fri, then Parigha.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Trayodashi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava runs until 18:22, when the lead reaches 150°; Taitila until 07:21 Fri.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:29 to 06:29 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 16 May 23:01 Sat to 15 Jun 05:54 Mon the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 15 Jun 10:22 Mon, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Jyeshtha, before Jyeshtha itself.

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 16 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 2026, 04:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 68.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
