Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Wed 22 May 2080

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, 05:37 here. Dwitiya ended at 08:59 Tue, before it. Tritiya ends at 05:48, when the lead reaches 36°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 19 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Chaturthi began at 05:48 and ended at 02:41 Thu, between the sunrises of 05:37 and 05:36 Thu. Wednesday reads Tritiya and Thursday reads Panchami: Chaturthi is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Tue 21 May ran from sunset 20:16 Tue to sunrise 05:37, 9 h 21 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 37 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:37 to 20:16, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 49 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 20:16 to 05:36 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 10 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 2 at 70°. It leaves at 17:16, for Punarvasu.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 36.9° + 72.8° = 109.7°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 106°40′–120°00′ is the 9th, Shula. It ends at 21:14, then Ganda.

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 19:23 Tue, when the lead reached 30°; Garaja runs until 05:48.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:37 to 05:36 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

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: Vrishabha gives Jyeshtha. The Sun enters Mithuna on 15 Jun, inside the month. The next new moon, 17 Jun, finds it in Mithuna and begins Ashadha.

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 19 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha. This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 21 Mar 2080, 16:07 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 60.1° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2137; Shaka Samvat numbers it 2002.
