How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 23 May? Krishna Ashtami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 270.7°: Krishna Ashtami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 264°–276° is the 23rd, Krishna Ashtami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 04:37 here. Saptami ended at 16:23 Fri, before it. Ashtami ends at 14:12, when the lead reaches 276°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 16 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sat 23 May? 03:22–03:59
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 03:22–03:59.
The night of Fri 22 May ran from sunset 19:15 Fri to sunrise 04:37, 9 h 22 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 37 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Sat 23 May? 11:27–12:26
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 11:27–12:26.

Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 04:37–05:35 and 05:35–06:34.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 23 May? 05:35–06:34
Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 04:37–05:35 and 05:35–06:34.
Daylight here, 04:37 to 19:16, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 58 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Saturday is the 1st and 2nd, 04:37–05:35 and 05:35–06:34.
Which choghadiya is good on Sat 23 May?
04:37–06:27 is Kala, ruled by Shani (Saturn), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 04:37 to 19:16, 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 night here, 19:16 to 04:36 Sun, 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.
Daylight in 8 parts
When is Rahu Kaal on Sat 23 May? 08:16–10:06
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 3rd of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight: 08:16–10:06.
When is Yamagandam on Sat 23 May? 13:46–15:36

Gulikai Kalam is the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight: 04:37–06:27.
Daylight here runs 04:37 to 19:16, 14 h 39 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 49 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Saturday Rahu Kaal is the 3rd part, Yamaganda the 6th and Gulikai Kalam the 1st.

Which nakshatra is it on Sat 23 May? Shatabhisha
At sunrise the Moon was at 309.7°: Shatabhisha, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Shatabhisha spans 306°40′–320°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 306°40′. It leaves at 22:11, for Purva Bhadrapada.
Which yoga is it on Sat 23 May? Vaidhriti
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 348.6°: Vaidhriti.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 38.9° + 309.7° = 348.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 346°40′–360°00′ is the 27th, Vaidhriti. It ends at 22:45, then Vishkambha.
Which karana is it on Sat 23 May? Kaulava
At sunrise the lead was 270.7°: the second half of Ashtami, Kaulava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ashtami is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava ended at 03:17, when the lead reached 270°; Kaulava runs until 14:12.
Which vara is Sat 23 May, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 04:37 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 04:37 to 04:36 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 23 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 30 Apr, with the Sun in Mesha: Vaishakha.
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: Mesha gives Vaishakha. The Sun enters Vrishabha on 13 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 30 May, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Sat 23 May in (purnimanta)? Jyeshtha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waning half already belongs to Jyeshtha.
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 30 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, begins Jyeshtha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Jyeshtha here, and Vaishakha in the amanta count.
Which samvat year is Sat 23 May in? Vikram 1965 · Shaka 1830
Vikram Samvat 1965 began at the Chaitra new moon of 1 Apr 1908.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 1 Apr 1908, 08:02 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 50.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1965; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1830.
Moonrise and moonset
What time is moonrise on Sat 23 May? 01:43 Sun
The Moon rises here at 01:43 Sun.
What time is moonset on Sat 23 May? 11:50
The Moon was up at sunrise and set at 11:50; it rises again at 01:43 Sun, so this day's moonrise falls in its night.
