Panchang in Şefaatlı, Yozgat, Turkey Sat 8 Jan 2028

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sat 8 Jan only, at 08:01: Sat 8 Jan. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 18:00 Fri, before it (06:25–08:01).

Pausha Putrada Ekadashi: every date in Şefaatlı

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 120°–132° is the 11th, Shukla Ekadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 08:01 here. Dashami ended at 18:00 Fri, before it. Ekadashi ends at 17:06, when the lead reaches 132°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 27 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Fri 7 Jan ran from sunset 17:32 Fri to sunrise 08:01, 14 h 29 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 57 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 08:01 to 17:33, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 11 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:33 to 08:01 Sun, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 48 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′. Krittika spans 26°40′–40°00′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 30°. It leaves at 00:50 Sun, for Rohini.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 263.2° + 30.4° = 293.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 293°20′–306°40′ is the 23rd, Shubha. It ends at 05:19 Sun, then Shukla.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ekadashi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 05:39, when the lead reached 126°; Vishti runs until 17:06.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 08:01 to 08:01 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.

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 15 Jan, inside the month. The next new moon, 26 Jan, 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 27 Dec, with the Sun in Dhanu, began Pausha. This Shukla paksha reads Pausha in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 7 Apr 2027, 02:51 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 270.5° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2084; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1949.
