Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Sun 18 Jul 2083

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, 05:44 here. Dwitiya ended at 05:36 Sat, before it. Tritiya ends at 05:46, when the lead reaches 36°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 15 Jul, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Chaturthi began at 05:46 and ended at 05:29 Mon, between the sunrises of 05:44 and 05:45 Mon. Sunday reads Tritiya and Monday reads Panchami: Chaturthi is a kshaya tithi here.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Tritiya began at 05:36 Sat, before sunrise at 05:44 Sat, and ends at 05:46, after the next sunrise at 05:44. Both days read Tritiya: it is a vriddhi tithi here.

The night of Sat 17 Jul ran from sunset 20:28 Sat 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 Mon, 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′. Magha spans 120°00′–133°20′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 126°40′. It leaves at 18:00, for Purva Phalguni.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 90.7° + 126.7° = 217.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 21:42, then Variyana.

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 17:45 Sat, when the lead reached 30°; Garaja runs until 05:46.

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

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: Mithuna gives Ashadha. The Sun enters Karka on 17 Jul, inside the month. The next new moon, 13 Aug, finds it in Karka and begins Shravana.

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 15 Jul, with the Sun in Mithuna, began Ashadha. This Shukla paksha reads Ashadha 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 117.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2140; Shaka Samvat numbers it 2005.
