Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Tue 13 Aug 2069

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 312°–324° is the 27th, Krishna Dwadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:09 here. Ekadashi ended at 05:22, before it. Dwadashi ends at 04:02 Wed, when the lead reaches 324°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 3 Aug, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.

New Delhi · IST

Sunrise here, 05:49, came before Ekadashi ended at 06:52: this day reads Ekadashi. Dwadashi ends at 05:32 Wed, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Dwadashi: it is kshaya.

Sunrise here, 06:09, came after Ekadashi ended at 05:22: this day reads Dwadashi.

The night of Mon 12 Aug ran from sunset 20:01 Mon to sunrise 06:09, 10 h 8 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 40 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:09 to 19:59, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 43 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 19:59 to 06:10 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 16 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′. Ardra spans 66°40′–80°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 66°40′. It leaves at 02:16 Wed, for Punarvasu.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 116.1° + 68.5° = 184.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 173°20′–186°40′ is the 14th, Harshana. It ends at 09:26, then Vajra.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwadashi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava runs until 16:40, when the lead reaches 318°; Taitila until 04:02 Wed.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:09 to 06:10 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 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 137.9° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2126; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1991.
