The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 168°–180° is the 15th, Shukla Purnima. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:33 here. Chaturdashi ended at 03:39 Mon, before it. Purnima ends at 06:01, when the lead reaches 180°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 16 Jun, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Purnima began at 03:39 Mon, before sunrise at 05:32 Mon, and ends at 06:01, after the next sunrise at 05:33. Both days read Purnima: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Mon 30 Jun ran from sunset 20:34 Mon to sunrise 05:33, 8 h 59 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 35 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:33 to 20:34, 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, 20:34 to 05:33 Wed, 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′. Purva Ashadha spans 253°20′–266°40′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 253°20′. It leaves at 05:21 Wed, for Uttara Ashadha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 75.1° + 254.9° = 330°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 320°00′–333°20′ is the 25th, Brahma. It ends at 11:46, then Indra.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Purnima is Vishti and the second Bava. Vishti ended at 16:49 Mon, when the lead reached 174°; Bava runs until 06:01.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:33 to 05:33 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 16 Jun 14:51 Mon to 15 Jul 21:26 Tue the Sun stayed in Mithuna, entering Karka at 16 Jul 20:17 Wed, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Ashadha, before Ashadha 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 16 Jun, with the Sun in Mithuna, began Ashadha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Ashadha (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 20 Mar 2053, 11:11 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 99.6° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2110; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1975.
