Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Wed 6 Jun 2018

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 252°–264° is the 22nd, Krishna Saptami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:30 here. Shashthi ended at 07:46 Tue, before it. Saptami ends at 09:45, when the lead reaches 264°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 29 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Tue 5 Jun ran from sunset 20:26 Tue to sunrise 05:30, 9 h 4 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 36 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:30 to 20:27, 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, 20:27 to 05:29 Thu, 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′. Shatabhisha spans 306°40′–320°00′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 310°. It leaves at 18:50, for Purva Bhadrapada.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 51.2° + 313.2° = 364.4°, one full turn and 4.4°. 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 21:43, then Priti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Saptami is Vishti and the second Bava. Vishti ended at 20:49 Tue, when the lead reached 258°; Bava runs until 09:45.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:30 to 05:29 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 15 May 15:47 Tue to 13 Jun 23:43 Wed the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 15 Jun 10:06 Fri, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Jyeshtha, before Jyeshtha 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 13 Jun, with the Sun in Vrishabha, begins Jyeshtha (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) here, and Jyeshtha (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 17 Mar 2018, 17:11 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 78.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2075; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1940.
