Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Thu 27 May 2083

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise. It begins at 06:52 on Thu 27 May, after that sunrise (05:34), and ends at 04:16 on Fri 28 May, before the next (05:33 Fri): it holds no sunrise. A kshaya Ekadashi is kept on the day it is current: Thu 27 May.

Padmini Ekadashi: every date in Sevan

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 108°–120° is the 10th, Shukla Dashami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:34 here. Navami ended at 08:46 Wed, before it. Dashami ends at 06:52, when the lead reaches 120°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 16 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Ekadashi began at 06:52 and ended at 04:16 Fri, between the sunrises of 05:34 and 05:33 Fri. Thursday reads Dashami and Friday reads Dwadashi: Ekadashi is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Wed 26 May ran from sunset 20:19 Wed to sunrise 05:34, 9 h 15 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 37 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:34 to 20:20, 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, 20:20 to 05:33 Fri, 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′. Hasta spans 160°00′–173°20′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 160°. It leaves at 03:19 Fri, for Chitra.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 41° + 160.3° = 201.3°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 200°00′–213°20′ is the 16th, Siddhi. It ends at 00:26 Fri, then Vyatipata.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dashami is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila ended at 19:55 Wed, when the lead reached 114°; Garaja runs until 06:52.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:34 to 05:33 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 16 May 22:15 Sun to 15 Jun 13:39 Tue the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 16 Jun 01:47 Wed, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Jyeshtha, before Jyeshtha 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 16 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 18 Mar 2083, 13:58 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 68° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2140; Shaka Samvat numbers it 2005.
