Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Mon 28 Jul 2064

Guru Purnima follows the tithi at sunrise. Purnima runs from 11:24 on Sun 27 Jul to 11:41 on Mon 28 Jul, so it holds sunrise only on Mon 28 Jul, at 05:54. No text giving Guru 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: 168°–180° is the 15th, Shukla Purnima. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:54 here. Chaturdashi ended at 11:24 Sun, before it. Purnima ends at 11:41, when the lead reaches 180°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 14 Jul, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Sun 27 Jul ran from sunset 20:19 Sun to sunrise 05:54, 9 h 35 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 38 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:54 to 20:18, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 48 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 20:18 to 05:55 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 12 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′. Uttara Ashadha spans 266°40′–280°00′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 276°40′. It leaves at 09:15, for Shravana.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 101.1° + 278.2° = 379.3°, one full turn and 19.3°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 13°20′–26°40′ is the 2nd, Priti. It ends at 18:54, then Ayushmana.

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 23:28 Sun, when the lead reached 174°; Bava runs until 11:41.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:54 to 05:55 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: Mithuna gives Ashadha. The Sun enters Karka on 16 Jul, inside the month. The next new moon, 12 Aug, finds it in Karka and begins Shravana.

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 14 Jul, with the Sun in Mithuna, began Ashadha. This Shukla paksha reads Ashadha in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 18 Mar 2064, 05:45 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 127.6° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2121; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1986.
