How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 31 Aug? Krishna Dwadashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 313.6°: Krishna Dwadashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 312°–324° is the 27th, Krishna Dwadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:25 here. Ekadashi ended at 02:35, before it. Dwadashi ends at 23:34, when the lead reaches 324°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 20 Aug, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sat 31 Aug? 03:58–04:42
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 03:58–04:42.
The night of Fri 30 Aug ran from sunset 18:36 Fri to sunrise 05:25, 10 h 49 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 31 Aug? 06:17–07:10

Daylight here, 05:25 to 18:34, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 52 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Saturday is the 1st and 2nd, 05:25–06:17 and 06:17–07:10.
Which choghadiya is good on Sat 31 Aug?
05:25–07:04 is Kala, ruled by Shani (Saturn), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 05:25 to 18:34, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 38 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 18:34 to 05:26 Sun, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 21 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 31 Aug? 08:42–10:21
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 3rd of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight: 08:42–10:21.

Daylight here runs 05:25 to 18:34, 13 h 9 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 38 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 31 Aug? Punarvasu
At sunrise the Moon was at 87.9°: Punarvasu, pada 3.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Punarvasu spans 80°00′–93°20′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 86°40′. It leaves at 14:14, for Pushya.
Which yoga is it on Sat 31 Aug? Vyatipata
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 222.2°: Vyatipata.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 134.3° + 87.9° = 222.2°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 12:11, then Variyana.
Which karana is it on Sat 31 Aug? Kaulava
At sunrise the lead was 313.6°: the first half of Dwadashi, Kaulava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwadashi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava runs until 13:06, when the lead reaches 318°; Taitila until 23:34.
Which vara is Sat 31 Aug, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 05:25 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:25 to 05:26 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 31 Aug in (amanta)? Shravana
This month began at the new moon of 5 Aug, with the Sun in Karka: Shravana.
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: Karka gives Shravana. The Sun enters Simha on 16 Aug, inside the month. The next new moon, 3 Sep, finds it in Simha and begins Bhadrapada.
Which Hindu month is Sat 31 Aug in (purnimanta)? Bhadrapada
Counted full moon to full moon, this waning half already belongs to Bhadrapada.
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 Sep, with the Sun in Simha, begins Bhadrapada. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Bhadrapada here, and Shravana in the amanta count.
Which samvat year is Sat 31 Aug in? Vikram 1986 · Shaka 1851
Vikram Samvat 1986 began at the Chaitra new moon of 9 Apr 1929.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 9 Apr 1929, 23:32 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 137.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1986; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1851.

What time is moonrise on Sat 31 Aug? 02:21 Sun
