Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Thu 11 Jun 2037

Shiva’s Pradosh puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Trayodashi runs from 22:26 on Wed 10 Jun to 22:35 on Thu 11 Jun, so only Thursday’s pradosha (20:30–22:18) falls within it. No text giving Pradosh Vrat’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.

Pradosh Vrat: every date in Sevan

Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 22:35 on Thu 11 Jun to 22:08 on Fri 12 Jun, so only Thursday night’s nishitha (00:41 Fri–01:17 Fri) falls within it. No text giving Masik Shivratri’s time was found; nishitha is Tithika’s convention.

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 324°–336° is the 28th, Krishna Trayodashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:29 here. Dwadashi ended at 22:26 Wed, before it. Trayodashi ends at 22:35, when the lead reaches 336°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 29 May, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Wed 10 Jun ran from sunset 20:30 Wed to sunrise 05:29, 8 h 59 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 35 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:29 to 20:30, 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, 20:30 to 05:29 Fri, 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′. Bharani spans 13°20′–26°40′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 23°20′. It leaves at 11:14, for Krittika.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 56.1° + 23.6° = 79.7°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 66°40′–80°00′ is the 6th, Atiganda. It ends at 06:00, then Sukarma.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Trayodashi is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja runs until 10:35, when the lead reaches 330°; Vanija until 22:35.

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

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 15 May 09:54 Fri to 13 Jun 21:10 Sat the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 15 Jun 07:02 Mon, 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 2037, 03:36 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 83.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2094; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1959.
