Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Sun 5 Nov 2062

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 36°–48° is the 4th, Shukla Chaturthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:34 here. Tritiya ended at 12:53 Sat, before it. Chaturthi ends at 14:27, when the lead reaches 48°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 1 Nov, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Sat 4 Nov ran from sunset 17:53 Sat to sunrise 07:34, 13 h 41 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 54 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 07:34 to 17:52, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 17 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 17:52 to 07:35 Mon, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 42 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′. Mula spans 240°00′–253°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 240°. It leaves at 03:54 Mon, for Purva Ashadha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 198.3° + 243.1° = 441.4°, one full turn and 81.4°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 80°00′–93°20′ is the 7th, Sukarma. It ends at 05:31 Mon, then Dhriti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturthi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 01:36, when the lead reached 42°; Vishti runs until 14:27.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:34 to 07:35 Mon, so the hours after midnight still belong to Raviwara.

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: Tula gives Kartika. The Sun enters Vrishchika on 16 Nov, inside the month. The next new moon, 1 Dec, finds it in Vrishchika and begins Margashirsha.

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 1 Nov, with the Sun in Tula, began Kartika. This Shukla paksha reads Kartika in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 9 Apr 2062, 21:17 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 202.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2119; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1984.
