Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Sun 29 Jun 1969

Purnima follows the tithi at sunrise. Purnima runs from 04:00 on Sun 29 Jun to 00:03 on Mon 30 Jun, so it holds sunrise only on Sun 29 Jun, at 05:31. No text giving Purnima’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.

Purnima: every date in Sevan

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 168°–180° is the 15th, Shukla Purnima. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:31 here. Chaturdashi ended at 04:00, before it. Purnima ends at 00:03 Mon, when the lead reaches 180°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 Jun, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

Sunrise here, 05:25, came before Chaturdashi ended at 05:30: this day reads Chaturdashi. Purnima ends at 01:33 Mon, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Purnima: it is kshaya.

Sunrise here, 05:31, came after Chaturdashi ended at 04:00: this day reads Purnima.

The night of Sat 28 Jun ran from sunset 20:34 Sat to sunrise 05:31, 8 h 57 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 35 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:31 to 20:34, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 52 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 05:32 Mon, 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′. Mula spans 240°00′–253°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 240°. It leaves at 22:19, for Purva Ashadha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 73.7° + 242.6° = 316.3°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 306°40′–320°00′ is the 24th, Shukla. It ends at 10:58, then Brahma.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Purnima is Vishti and the second Bava. Vishti runs until 14:02, when the lead reaches 174°; Bava until 00:03 Mon.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:31 to 05:32 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 15 Jun 03:08 Sun to 14 Jul 18:11 Mon the Sun stayed in Mithuna, entering Karka at 16 Jul 07:40 Wed, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Ashadha, before Ashadha itself.

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 15 Jun, with the Sun in Mithuna, began Ashadha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Ashadha (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 18 Mar 1969, 08:51 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 99.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2026; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1891.
