Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Mon 24 Nov 2031

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Mon 24 Nov only, at 07:56: Mon 24 Nov. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 03:02, before it (06:20–07:56).

Dev Uthani Ekadashi: every date in Sevan

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 120°–132° is the 11th, Shukla Ekadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:56 here. Dashami ended at 03:02, before it. Ekadashi ends at 02:14 Tue, when the lead reaches 132°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 Nov, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Sun 23 Nov ran from sunset 17:37 Sun to sunrise 07:56, 14 h 19 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 57 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 07:56 to 17:36, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 12 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:36 to 07:57 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 47 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′. Uttara Bhadrapada spans 333°20′–346°40′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 336°40′. It leaves at 20:01, for Revati.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 217.4° + 339.9° = 557.3°, one full turn and 197.3°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 186°40′–200°00′ is the 15th, Vajra. It ends at 12:29, then Siddhi.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ekadashi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija runs until 14:35, when the lead reaches 126°; Vishti until 02:14 Tue.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:56 to 07:57 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: Tula gives Kartika. The Sun enters Vrishchika on 17 Nov, inside the month. The next new moon, 14 Dec, finds it in Vrishchika and begins Margashirsha.

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 Nov, with the Sun in Tula, began Kartika. This Shukla paksha reads Kartika in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 23 Mar 2031, 07:49 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 239.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2088; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1953.
