Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Wed 8 Aug 1956

Hariyali Teej follows the tithi at sunrise. Tritiya begins at 07:11 on Wed 8 Aug, after that sunrise, and ends at 04:11 on Thu 9 Aug, before the next: it holds no sunrise. A tithi that holds no sunrise is kept on the day it is current: Wed 8 Aug. No text giving Hariyali Teej’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.

Hariyali Teej: every date in Sevan

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 12°–24° is the 2nd, Shukla Dwitiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:03 here. Pratipada ended at 10:40 Tue, before it. Dwitiya ends at 07:11, when the lead reaches 24°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 6 Aug, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Tritiya began at 07:11 and ended at 04:11 Thu, between the sunrises of 05:03 and 05:04 Thu. Wednesday reads Dwitiya and Thursday reads Chaturthi: Tritiya is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Tue 7 Aug ran from sunset 19:08 Tue to sunrise 05:03, 9 h 55 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 39 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:03 to 19:07, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 45 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 19:07 to 05:04 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 14 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Purva Phalguni spans 133°20′–146°40′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 133°20′. It leaves at 00:03 Thu, for Uttara Phalguni.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 112.2° + 135° = 247.2°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 240°00′–253°20′ is the 19th, Parigha. It ends at 14:19, then Shiva.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwitiya is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava ended at 20:53 Tue, when the lead reached 18°; Kaulava runs until 07:11.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:03 to 05:04 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

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, 4 Sep, finds it in Simha and begins 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 6 Aug, with the Sun in Karka, began Shravana. This Shukla paksha reads Shravana in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 11 Apr 1956, 05:38 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 114.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2013; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1878.
