Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Fri 21 Jun 1912

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 72°–84° is the 7th, Shukla Saptami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 04:29 here. Shashthi ended at 14:11 Thu, before it. Saptami ends at 12:20, when the lead reaches 84°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 Jun, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Thu 20 Jun ran from sunset 19:33 Thu to sunrise 04:29, 8 h 56 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 35 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 04:29 to 19:33, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 53 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 19:33 to 04:29 Sat, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 7 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′. Purva Phalguni spans 133°20′–146°40′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 143°20′. It leaves at 04:52, for Uttara Phalguni.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 66.7° + 146.4° = 213.1°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 200°00′–213°20′ is the 16th, Siddhi. It ends at 04:51, then Vyatipata.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Saptami is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja ended at 01:11, when the lead reached 78°; Vanija runs until 12:20.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 04:29 to 04:29 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 15 Jun 09:23 Sat to 14 Jul 16:12 Sun the Sun stayed in Mithuna, entering Karka at 15 Jul 16:02 Mon, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Ashadha, before Ashadha 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 15 Jun, with the Sun in Mithuna, began Ashadha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Ashadha (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 1912, 01:08 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 91.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1969; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1834.
