How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 8 May? Krishna Chaturdashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 347.5°: Krishna Chaturdashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 336°–348° is the 29th, Krishna Chaturdashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 04:51 here. Trayodashi ended at 05:37 Fri, before it. Chaturdashi ends at 05:50, when the lead reaches 348°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 23 Apr, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sat 8 May? 03:32–04:11

Which nakshatra is it on Sat 8 May? Ashwini
At sunrise the Moon was at 11.7°: Ashwini, pada 4.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Ashwini spans 0°00′–13°20′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 10°. It leaves at 07:46, for Bharani.
Which yoga is it on Sat 8 May? Ayushmana
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 35.9°: Ayushmana.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 24.2° + 11.7° = 35.9°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 26°40′–40°00′ is the 3rd, Ayushmana. It ends at 11:43, then Saubhagya.
Which karana is it on Sat 8 May? Shakuni
At sunrise the lead was 347.5°: the second half of Chaturdashi, Shakuni.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturdashi is Vishti and the second Shakuni. Vishti ended at 17:48 Fri, when the lead reached 342°; Shakuni runs until 05:50.
Which vara is Sat 8 May, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 04:51 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 04:51 to 04:49 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 8 May in (amanta)? Chaitra
This month began at the new moon of 9 Apr, with the Sun in Meena: Chaitra.
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: Meena gives Chaitra. The Sun enters Mesha on 13 Apr, inside the month. The next new moon, 9 May, finds it in Mesha and begins Vaishakha.
Which Hindu month is Sat 8 May in (purnimanta)? Vaishakha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waning half already belongs to Vaishakha.
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 9 May, with the Sun in Mesha, begins Vaishakha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Vaishakha here, and Chaitra in the amanta count.
Which samvat year is Sat 8 May in? Vikram 2005 · Shaka 1870
Vikram Samvat 2005 began at the Chaitra new moon of 9 Apr 1948.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 9 Apr 1948, 16:16 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 27.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2005; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1870.
