How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Thu 18 May? Shukla Navami
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 101°: 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, 05:41 here. Ashtami ended at 20:26 Wed, before it. Navami ends at 18:23, when the lead reaches 108°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Thu 18 May? 04:25–05:03
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:25–05:03.
The night of Wed 17 May ran from sunset 20:10 Wed to sunrise 05:41, 9 h 31 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 38 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Which nakshatra is it on Thu 18 May? Purva Phalguni
At sunrise the Moon was at 134.1°: Purva Phalguni, pada 1.
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 02:58 Fri, for Uttara Phalguni.
Which yoga is it on Thu 18 May? Vyaghata
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 167.1°: Vyaghata.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 33° + 134.1° = 167.1°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 160°00′–173°20′ is the 13th, Vyaghata. It ends at 15:33, then Harshana.
Which karana is it on Thu 18 May? Balava
At sunrise the lead was 101°: the first half of Navami, Balava.
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 runs until 07:28, when the lead reaches 102°; Kaulava until 18:23.
Which vara is Thu 18 May, and from when? Guruwara
This day began at sunrise, 05:41 on Thursday: Guruwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:41 to 05:40 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.
Which Hindu month is Thu 18 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 9 May, with the Sun in Mesha: Vaishakha.
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: Mesha gives Vaishakha. The Sun enters Vrishabha on 15 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 8 Jun, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Thu 18 May in (purnimanta)? Vaishakha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half 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, began Vaishakha. This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Thu 18 May in? Vikram 2024 · Shaka 1889
Vikram Samvat 2024 began at the Chaitra new moon of 10 Apr 1967.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 10 Apr 1967, 02:20 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 37° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2024; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1889.
