Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Mon 26 Jun 1967

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 228°–240° is the 20th, Krishna Panchami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:30 here. Chaturthi ended at 05:11, before it. Panchami ends at 05:58 Tue, when the lead reaches 240°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 22 Jun, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Panchami began at 05:11, before sunrise at 05:30, and ends at 05:58 Tue, after the next sunrise at 05:30 Tue. Both days read Panchami: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Sun 25 Jun ran from sunset 20:34 Sun to sunrise 05:30, 8 h 56 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 35 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:30 to 20:34, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 53 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 20:34 to 05:30 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 7 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′. Dhanishtha spans 293°20′–306°40′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 296°40′. It leaves at 20:57, for Shatabhisha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 70.4° + 298.5° = 368.9°, one full turn and 8.9°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 0°00′–13°20′ is the 1st, Vishkambha. It ends at 13:16, then Priti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Panchami is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava runs until 17:29, when the lead reaches 234°; Taitila until 05:58 Tue.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:30 to 05:30 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.

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: Vrishabha gives Jyeshtha. The Sun enters Mithuna on 15 Jun, inside the month. The next new moon, 7 Jul, finds it in Mithuna and begins Ashadha.

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 7 Jul, with the Sun in Mithuna, begins Ashadha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Ashadha here, and Jyeshtha in the amanta count.

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 74.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2024; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1889.
