How each value is worked out

Which tithi is on Thu 18 Feb? Shukla Saptami

At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 73.5°: Shukla Saptami.

Sun New moon 0° 73.5° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Saptami 72°–84° Full moon 180°
Sun New moon 0° 73.5° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Saptami 72°–84° 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: 72°–84° is the 7th, Shukla Saptami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:51 here. Shashthi ended at 03:51, before it. Saptami ends at 03:28 Fri, when the lead reaches 84°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 12 Feb, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

Which nakshatra is it on Thu 18 Feb? Bharani

At sunrise the Moon was at 19.5°: Bharani, pada 2.

Moon Sun 0° Bharani Moon 19.5° next: Krittika Earth
Moon Sun 0° Bharani Moon 19.5° next: Krittika 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′. Bharani spans 13°20′–26°40′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 16°40′. It leaves at 19:53, for Krittika.

Which yoga is it on Thu 18 Feb? Brahma

At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 325.4°: Brahma.

Sun 305.9° + Moon 19.5° = 325.4° Brahma 320°00′–333°20′ Moon Sun 0°
Sun 305.9° + Moon 19.5° = 325.4° Brahma 320°00′–333°20′ 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: 305.9° + 19.5° = 325.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 320°00′–333°20′ is the 25th, Brahma. It ends at 20:12, then Indra.

Which karana is it on Thu 18 Feb? Garaja

At sunrise the lead was 73.5°: the first half of Saptami, Garaja.

Sun New moon 0° 73.5° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Saptami 72°–84° Garaja 72°–78° Full moon 180°
Sun New moon 0° 73.5° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Saptami 72°–84° Garaja 72°–78° 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 Saptami is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja runs until 15:33, when the lead reaches 78°; Vanija until 03:28 Fri.

Which vara is Thu 18 Feb, and from when? Guruwara

This day began at sunrise, 06:51 on Thursday: Guruwara.

Guruwara Sunrise 06:51 Sunset 17:37 Sunrise 06:49 Fri time, not height 00:00 Fri still Guruwara
Guruwara Sunrise 06:51 Sunset 17:37 Sunrise 06:49 Fri time, not height 00:00 Fri still Guruwara
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 06:51 to 06:49 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.

Which Hindu month is Thu 18 Feb in (amanta)? Phalguna (Adhik)

No sankranti between the new moons of 12 Feb and 14 Mar: Adhika Phalguna.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Kumbha Meena 0° Earth
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Kumbha Meena 0° Earth
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 · dashed: the next sankranti, after the month

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 12 Feb 20:20 Fri to 14 Mar 06:20 Sun the Sun stayed in Kumbha, entering Meena at 14 Mar 06:53 Sun, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Phalguna, before Phalguna itself.

Which Hindu month is Thu 18 Feb in (purnimanta)? Phalguna (Adhik)

Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Phalguna (Adhik).

Amanta Purnimanta Phalguna (Adhik) Phalguna (Adhik) Krishna Shukla Thu 18 Feb Full moon 29 Jan New moon 12 Feb Full moon 27 Feb New moon 14 Mar
Amanta Purnimanta Phalguna (Adhik) Phalguna (Adhik) Krishna Shukla Thu 18 Feb Full moon 29 Jan New moon 12 Feb Full moon 27 Feb New moon 14 Mar
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 12 Feb, with the Sun in Kumbha, began Phalguna (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Phalguna (Adhik) in both counts.

Which samvat year is Thu 18 Feb 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 325.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1982; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1847.
