Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Mon 5 Aug 2069

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 204°–216° is the 18th, Krishna Tritiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:01 here. Dwitiya ended at 00:06, before it. Tritiya ends at 21:54, when the lead reaches 216°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 3 Aug, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Sun 4 Aug ran from sunset 20:11 Sun to sunrise 06:01, 9 h 50 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 39 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:01 to 20:10, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 46 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 20:10 to 06:02 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 14 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′. Shatabhisha spans 306°40′–320°00′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 313°20′. It leaves at 13:19, for Purva Bhadrapada.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 108.4° + 315.7° = 424.1°, one full turn and 64.1°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 53°20′–66°40′ is the 5th, Shobhana. It ends at 10:02, then Atiganda.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Tritiya is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija runs until 11:01, when the lead reaches 210°; Vishti until 21:54.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:01 to 06:02 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 18 Jul 15:13 Thu to 17 Aug 02:03 Sat the Sun stayed in Karka, entering Simha at 17 Aug 07:00 Sat, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Shravana, before Shravana 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 17 Aug, with the Sun in Karka, begins Shravana (Adhik). Until then this Krishna paksha reads Shravana (Adhik) here, and Shravana (Adhik) in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 23 Mar 2069, 05:14 Sat. Since then the Sun has moved 130.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2126; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1991.
