How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Wed 31 Aug? Shukla Navami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 107.1°: Shukla Navami.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 96°–108° is the 9th, Shukla Navami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:25 here. Ashtami ended at 10:21 Tue, before it. Navami ends at 08:02, when the lead reaches 108°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 22 Aug, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
Why is Dashami skipped here?
Dashami began after one sunrise and ended before the next, so no day here reads Dashami.
A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Dashami began at 08:02 and ended at 05:25 Thu, between the sunrises of 06:25 and 06:26 Thu. Wednesday reads Navami and Thursday reads Ekadashi: Dashami is a kshaya tithi here.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 31 Aug? 04:59–05:42
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:59–05:42.
The night of Tue 30 Aug ran from sunset 19:35 Tue to sunrise 06:25, 10 h 50 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 43 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 31 Aug? 12:33–13:26
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 12:33–13:26.
Daylight here, 06:25 to 19:33, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 52 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 12:33–13:26: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 31 Aug?
06:25–08:04 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 06:25 to 19:33, 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, 19:33 to 06:26 Thu, 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 Wed 31 Aug? 12:59–14:38
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 12:59–14:38.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 31 Aug? 08:04–09:42
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 08:04–09:42.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 31 Aug? 11:21–12:59
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 11:21–12:59.
Daylight here runs 06:25 to 19:33, 13 h 8 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 38 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 31 Aug? 06:25
Day here: sunrise 06:25, sunset 19:33, 13 h 8 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 31 Aug? 19:33
Day here: sunrise 06:25, sunset 19:33, 13 h 8 m of daylight.
Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 13 h 8 m and the night until the next sunrise 10 h 53 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 31 Aug? Mula
At sunrise the Moon was at 241.5°: Mula, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Mula spans 240°00′–253°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 240°. It leaves at 02:10 Thu, for Purva Ashadha.
Which yoga is it on Wed 31 Aug? Priti
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 375.9°, one turn and 15.9°: Priti.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 134.4° + 241.5° = 375.9°, one full turn and 15.9°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 13°20′–26°40′ is the 2nd, Priti. It ends at 23:19, then Ayushmana.
Which karana is it on Wed 31 Aug? Kaulava
At sunrise the lead was 107.1°: the second half of Navami, Kaulava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Navami is Balava and the second Kaulava. Balava ended at 21:14 Tue, when the lead reached 102°; Kaulava runs until 08:02.
Which vara is Wed 31 Aug, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 06:25 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:25 to 06:26 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 31 Aug in (amanta)? Bhadrapada
This month began at the new moon of 22 Aug, with the Sun in Simha: Bhadrapada.
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: Simha gives Bhadrapada. The Sun enters Kanya on 16 Sep, inside the month. The next new moon, 21 Sep, finds it in Kanya and begins Ashwina.
Which Hindu month is Wed 31 Aug in (purnimanta)? Bhadrapada
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half 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 22 Aug, with the Sun in Simha, began Bhadrapada. This Shukla paksha reads Bhadrapada in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 31 Aug in? Vikram 2017 · Shaka 1882
Vikram Samvat 2017 began at the Chaitra new moon of 27 Mar 1960.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 27 Mar 1960, 11:37 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 151.1° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2017; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1882.
Moonrise and moonset
What time is moonrise on Wed 31 Aug? 15:28
The Moon rises here at 15:28.
What time is moonset on Wed 31 Aug? 01:39 Thu
The Moon was down at sunrise and rises at 15:28, in this day's daylight; it sets again at 01:39 Thu.
