Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Tue 1 Oct 2058

Purnima follows the tithi at sunrise. Purnima begins at 08:29 on Tue 1 Oct, after that sunrise, and ends at 05:36 on Wed 2 Oct, before the next: it holds no sunrise. A tithi that holds no sunrise is kept on the day it is current: Tue 1 Oct. No text giving Purnima’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.

Purnima: every date in Sevan

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 156°–168° is the 14th, Shukla Chaturdashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:56 here. Trayodashi ended at 11:36 Mon, before it. Chaturdashi ends at 08:29, when the lead reaches 168°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 18 Sep, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Purnima began at 08:29 and ended at 05:36 Wed, between the sunrises of 06:56 and 06:57 Wed. Tuesday reads Chaturdashi and Wednesday reads Pratipada: Purnima is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Mon 30 Sep ran from sunset 18:43 Mon to sunrise 06:56, 12 h 13 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 48 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:56 to 18:42, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 28 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:42 to 06:57 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 31 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 Bhadrapada spans 320°00′–333°20′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 330°. It leaves at 11:20, for Uttara Bhadrapada.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 163.5° + 330.6° = 494.1°, one full turn and 134.1°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 133°20′–146°40′ is the 11th, Vriddhi. It ends at 02:08 Wed, then Dhruva.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturdashi is Garaja and the second Vanija. Garaja ended at 22:01 Mon, when the lead reached 162°; Vanija runs until 08:29.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:56 to 06:57 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 18 Sep 02:18 Wed to 17 Oct 17:05 Thu the Sun stayed in Kanya, entering Tula at 17 Oct 23:18 Thu, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Ashwina, before Ashwina 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 18 Sep, with the Sun in Kanya, began Ashwina (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Ashwina (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 24 Mar 2058, 13:50 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 184.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2115; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1980.
