Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Fri 5 Mar 2060

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, 07:26 here. Dwitiya ended at 13:01 Thu, before it. Tritiya ends at 09:37, when the lead reaches 36°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 2 Mar, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Chaturthi began at 09:37 and ended at 06:33 Sat, between the sunrises of 07:26 and 07:25 Sat. Friday reads Tritiya and Saturday reads Panchami: Chaturthi is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Thu 4 Mar ran from sunset 18:55 Thu to sunrise 07:26, 12 h 31 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 50 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 07:26 to 18:56, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 26 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:56 to 07:25 Sat, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 33 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′. Revati spans 346°40′–360°00′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 353°20′. It leaves at 14:56, for Ashwini.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 320.6° + 355.4° = 676°, one full turn and 316°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 306°40′–320°00′ is the 24th, Shukla. It ends at 13:31, then Brahma.

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 ended at 23:17 Thu, when the lead reached 30°; Garaja runs until 09:37.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:26 to 07:25 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.

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: Kumbha gives Phalguna. The Sun enters Meena on 14 Mar, inside the month. The next new moon, 1 Apr, finds it in Meena and begins Chaitra.

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 2 Mar, with the Sun in Kumbha, began Phalguna. This Shukla paksha reads Phalguna in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 12 Apr 2059, 13:29 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 322.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2116; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1981.
