How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 12 Dec? Shukla Saptami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 73.3°: Shukla Saptami.
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, 07:13 here. Shashthi ended at 04:47, before it. Saptami ends at 02:45 Thu, when the lead reaches 84°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 6 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why does New Delhi read Shashthi?
New Delhi reads Shashthi, Sevan reads Saptami.
A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.
New Delhi · IST
Sunrise here, 07:03, came before Shashthi ended at 07:17: this day reads Shashthi. Saptami ends at 05:15 Thu, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Saptami: it is kshaya.
Sevan · UTC+3
Sunrise here, 07:13, came after Shashthi ended at 04:47: this day reads Saptami.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 12 Dec? 05:16–06:14
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:16–06:14.
The night of Tue 11 Dec ran from sunset 16:33 Tue to sunrise 07:13, 14 h 40 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 12 Dec? 11:34–12:12
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 11:34–12:12.
Daylight here, 07:13 to 16:33, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 37 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 11:34–12:12: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 12 Dec?
07:13–08:23 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 07:13 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 07:14 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 50 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 12 Dec? 11:53–13:03
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 11:53–13:03.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 12 Dec? 08:23–09:33
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 08:23–09:33.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 12 Dec? 10:43–11:53
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 10:43–11:53.
Daylight here runs 07:13 to 16:33, 9 h 20 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.
Sunrise and sunset
What time is sunrise on Wed 12 Dec? 07:13
Day here: sunrise 07:13, sunset 16:33, 9 h 20 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 12 Dec? 16:33
Day here: sunrise 07:13, sunset 16:33, 9 h 20 m of daylight.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 12 Dec? Shatabhisha
At sunrise the Moon was at 309.8°: Shatabhisha, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Shatabhisha spans 306°40′–320°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 306°40′. It leaves at 00:28 Thu, for Purva Bhadrapada.
Which yoga is it on Wed 12 Dec? Harshana
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 546.3°, one turn and 186.3°: Harshana.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 236.5° + 309.8° = 546.3°, one full turn and 186.3°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 173°20′–186°40′ is the 14th, Harshana. It ends at 07:43, then Vajra.
Which karana is it on Wed 12 Dec? Garaja
At sunrise the lead was 73.3°: the first half of Saptami, Garaja.
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 15:44, when the lead reaches 78°; Vanija until 02:45 Thu.
Which vara is Wed 12 Dec, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 07:13 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:13 to 07:14 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 12 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 6 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, 5 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.
Which Hindu month is Wed 12 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 6 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 12 Dec in? Vikram 1991 · Shaka 1856
Vikram Samvat 1991 began at the Chaitra new moon of 15 Mar 1934.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 15 Mar 1934, 15:08 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 265.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 1991; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1856.

What time is moonrise on Wed 12 Dec? 11:27
