Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Mon 28 Jan 2047

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 24°–36° is the 3rd, Shukla Tritiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 08:13 here. Dwitiya ended at 07:10, before it. Tritiya ends at 08:39 Tue, when the lead reaches 36°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 26 Jan, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Tritiya began at 07:10, before sunrise at 08:13, and ends at 08:39 Tue, after the next sunrise at 08:12 Tue. Both days read Tritiya: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Sun 27 Jan ran from sunset 18:11 Sun to sunrise 08:13, 14 h 2 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 56 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 08:13 to 18:12, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 14 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:12 to 08:12 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 45 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 1 at 306°40′. It leaves at 07:22 Tue, for Purva Bhadrapada.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 283.6° + 308.1° = 591.7°, one full turn and 231.7°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 226°40′–240°00′ is the 18th, Variyana. It ends at 23:02, then Parigha.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Tritiya is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila runs until 19:51, when the lead reaches 30°; Garaja until 08:39 Tue.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 08:13 to 08:12 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: Makara gives Magha. The Sun enters Kumbha on 13 Feb, inside the month. The next new moon, 24 Feb, finds it in Kumbha and begins Phalguna.

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 26 Jan, with the Sun in Makara, began Magha. This Shukla paksha reads Magha in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 6 Apr 2046, 15:51 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 291.3° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2103; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1968.
