Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Wed 17 Jul 2080

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 0°–12° is the 1st, Shukla Pratipada. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:44 here. Amavasya ended at 05:22, before it. Pratipada ends at 01:27 Thu, when the lead reaches 12°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 17 Jul, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.

Sunrise here, 05:34, came before Amavasya ended at 06:52: this day reads Amavasya. Pratipada ends at 02:57 Thu, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Pratipada: it is kshaya.

Sunrise here, 05:44, came after Amavasya ended at 05:22: this day reads Pratipada.

The night of Tue 16 Jul ran from sunset 20:28 Tue to sunrise 05:44, 9 h 16 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 37 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:44 to 20:27, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 50 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 20:27 to 05:45 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 9 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′. Punarvasu spans 80°00′–93°20′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 90°. It leaves at 09:54, for Pushya.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 90.5° + 90.7° = 181.2°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 173°20′–186°40′ is the 14th, Harshana. It ends at 13:54, then Vajra.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Pratipada is Kinstughna and the second Bava. Kinstughna runs until 15:24, when the lead reaches 6°; Bava until 01:27 Thu.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:44 to 05:45 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 17 Jul 05:22 to 15 Aug 12:14 Thu the Sun stayed in Karka, entering Simha at 17 Aug 02:43 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 Jul, with the Sun in Karka, began Shravana (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Shravana (Adhik) 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 113.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2137; Shaka Samvat numbers it 2002.
