How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 4 Dec? Shukla Pratipada
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 6°: Shukla Pratipada.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 0°–12° is the 1st, Shukla Pratipada. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:06 here. Amavasya ended at 18:18 Tue, before it. Pratipada ends at 19:40, when the lead reaches 12°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 3 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 4 Dec? 05:09–06:08
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:09–06:08.
The night of Tue 3 Dec ran from sunset 16:33 Tue to sunrise 07:06, 14 h 33 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 58 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 4 Dec? 11:30–12:08
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:30–12:08.
Daylight here, 07:06 to 16:33, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 37 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:30–12:08: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 4 Dec?
07:06–08:17 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 07:06 to 16:33, 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.
The night here, 16:33 to 07:07 Thu, 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.
Daylight in 8 parts
When is Rahu Kaal on Wed 4 Dec? 11:49–13:00
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 11:49–13:00.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 4 Dec? 08:17–09:28
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 08:17–09:28.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 4 Dec? 10:38–11:49
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 10:38–11:49.
Daylight here runs 07:06 to 16:33, 9 h 27 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 10 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Wednesday Rahu Kaal is the 5th part, Yamaganda the 2nd and Gulikai Kalam the 4th.

What time is sunrise on Wed 4 Dec? 07:06
Day here: sunrise 07:06, sunset 16:33, 9 h 27 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 4 Dec? 16:33
Day here: sunrise 07:06, sunset 16:33, 9 h 27 m of daylight.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 4 Dec? Jyeshtha
At sunrise the Moon was at 234.5°: Jyeshtha, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Jyeshtha spans 226°40′–240°00′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 233°20′. It leaves at 17:44, for Mula.
Which yoga is it on Wed 4 Dec? Dhriti
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 463°, one turn and 103°: Dhriti.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 228.5° + 234.5° = 463°, one full turn and 103°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 93°20′–106°40′ is the 8th, Dhriti. It ends at 13:42, then Shula.
Which karana is it on Wed 4 Dec? Bava
At sunrise the lead was 6°: the second half of Pratipada, Bava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Pratipada is Kinstughna and the second Bava. Kinstughna ended at 07:03, when the lead reached 6°; Bava runs until 19:40.
Which vara is Wed 4 Dec, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 07:06 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:06 to 07:07 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 4 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 3 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika: Margashirsha.
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: Vrishchika gives Margashirsha. The Sun enters Dhanu on 15 Dec, inside the month. The next new moon, 2 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.
Which Hindu month is Wed 4 Dec in (purnimanta)? Margashirsha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Margashirsha.
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 3 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 4 Dec in? Vikram 1975 · Shaka 1840
Vikram Samvat 1975 began at the Chaitra new moon of 11 Apr 1918.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 11 Apr 1918, 07:33 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 230.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1975; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1840.

What time is moonrise on Wed 4 Dec? 07:40
