How each value is worked out

Which tithi is on Sun 20 Dec? Shukla Shashthi

At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 60.1°: Shukla Shashthi.

Sun New moon 0° 60.1° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Shashthi 60°–72° Full moon 180°
Sun New moon 0° 60.1° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Shashthi 60°–72° Full moon 180°
Earth at the centre · Sun fixed at the top · Moon moves counter-clockwise · not to scale

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 60°–72° is the 6th, Shukla Shashthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:19 here. Panchami ended at 07:08, before it. Shashthi ends at 04:49 Mon, when the lead reaches 72°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

Why does New Delhi read Panchami?

New Delhi reads Panchami, Sevan reads Shashthi.

Which nakshatra is it on Sun 20 Dec? Dhanishtha

At sunrise the Moon was at 305.1°: Dhanishtha, pada 4.

Moon Sun 0° Dhanishtha Moon 305.1° next: Shatabhisha Earth
Moon Sun 0° Dhanishtha Moon 305.1° next: Shatabhisha Earth
Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · 0° at the top, counter-clockwise

The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Dhanishtha spans 293°20′–306°40′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 303°20′. It leaves at 09:59, for Shatabhisha.

Which yoga is it on Sun 20 Dec? Vajra

At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 550.1°, one turn and 190.1°: Vajra.

Sun 245.0° + Moon 305.1° = 550.1° one turn + 190.1° Vajra 186°40′–200°00′ Moon Sun 0°
Sun 245.0° + Moon 305.1° = 550.1° one turn + 190.1° Vajra 186°40′–200°00′ Moon Sun 0°
Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · 0° at the top, counter-clockwise

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 245° + 305.1° = 550.1°, one full turn and 190.1°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 186°40′–200°00′ is the 15th, Vajra. It ends at 22:54, then Siddhi.

Which karana is it on Sun 20 Dec? Kaulava

At sunrise the lead was 60.1°: the first half of Shashthi, Kaulava.

Sun New moon 0° 60.1° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Shashthi 60°–72° Kaulava 60°–66° Full moon 180°
Sun New moon 0° 60.1° Moon's lead Shashthi 60°–72° Kaulava 60°–66° Full moon 180°
Earth at the centre · Sun fixed at the top · Moon moves counter-clockwise · each 12° tithi halved into karanas · not to scale

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Shashthi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava runs until 17:55, when the lead reaches 66°; Taitila until 04:49 Mon.

Which vara is Sun 20 Dec, and from when? Raviwara

This day began at sunrise, 07:19 on Sunday: Raviwara.

Raviwara Sunrise 07:19 Sunset 16:35 Sunrise 07:19 Mon time, not height 00:00 Mon still Raviwara
Raviwara Sunrise 07:19 Sunset 16:35 Sunrise 07:19 Mon time, not height 00:00 Mon still Raviwara
One turn of the wheel is one vara, sunrise to sunrise · clockwise

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:19 to 07:19 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.

Which Hindu month is Sun 20 Dec in (amanta)? Pausha

This month began at the new moon of 15 Dec, with the Sun in Dhanu: Pausha.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 11 12 0° Earth Dhanu Makara
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 11 12 0° Earth Dhanu Makara
Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · ring: the Sun's yearly path in 12 rashis of 30°, numbered from 0° · Sun's path from new moon to new moon

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 13 Jan, inside the month. The next new moon, 14 Jan, finds it in Makara and begins Magha.

Which Hindu month is Sun 20 Dec in (purnimanta)? Pausha

Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Pausha.

Amanta Pausha Purnimanta Pausha Krishna Shukla Sun 20 Dec Full moon 30 Nov New moon 15 Dec Full moon 30 Dec New moon 14 Jan
Amanta Pausha Purnimanta Pausha Krishna Shukla Sun 20 Dec Full moon 30 Nov New moon 15 Dec Full moon 30 Dec New moon 14 Jan
Time runs left to right · amanta: new moon to new moon · purnimanta: full moon to full moon

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 Dec, with the Sun in Dhanu, began Pausha. This Shukla paksha reads Pausha in both counts.

Which samvat year is Sun 20 Dec in? Vikram 1982 · Shaka 1847

Vikram Samvat 1982 began at the Chaitra new moon of 24 Mar 1925.

Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · ring: the Sun's yearly path in 12 rashis of 30°, numbered from 0° · Sun's path since the year began

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 24 Mar 1925, 17:02 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 264.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1982; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1847.
