Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Sun 21 Jul 1974

Hariyali Teej follows the tithi at sunrise. Tritiya begins at 08:30 on Sun 21 Jul, after that sunrise, and ends at 04:57 on Mon 22 Jul, before the next: it holds no sunrise. A tithi that holds no sunrise is kept on the day it is current: Sun 21 Jul. 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, 05:46 here. Pratipada ended at 12:16 Sat, before it. Dwitiya ends at 08:30, when the lead reaches 24°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 19 Jul, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Tritiya began at 08:30 and ended at 04:57 Mon, between the sunrises of 05:46 and 05:47 Mon. Sunday reads Dwitiya and Monday reads Chaturthi: Tritiya is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Sat 20 Jul ran from sunset 20:26 Sat to sunrise 05:46, 9 h 20 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 37 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:46 to 20:25, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 49 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 20:25 to 05:47 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 10 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′. Ashlesha spans 106°40′–120°00′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 116°40′. It leaves at 10:48, for Magha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 94.4° + 116.8° = 211.2°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 200°00′–213°20′ is the 16th, Siddhi. It ends at 08:52, then Vyatipata.

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 22:22 Sat, when the lead reached 18°; Kaulava runs until 08:30.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:46 to 05:47 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.

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, 17 Aug, 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 19 Jul, 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: 24 Mar 1974, 01:23 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 115° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2031; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1896.
