Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Mon 3 Jul 2090

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 60°–72° is the 6th, Shukla Shashthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:34 here. Panchami ended at 08:17 Sun, before it. Shashthi ends at 05:51, when the lead reaches 72°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 27 Jun, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Saptami began at 05:51 and ended at 03:39 Tue, between the sunrises of 05:34 and 05:35 Tue. Monday reads Shashthi and Tuesday reads Ashtami: Saptami is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Sun 2 Jul ran from sunset 20:34 Sun to sunrise 05:34, 9 h 0 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 36 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:34 to 20:34, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 52 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 20:34 to 05:35 Tue, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 7 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′. Uttara Phalguni spans 146°40′–160°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 146°40′. It leaves at 01:11 Tue, for Hasta.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 76.6° + 148.4° = 225°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 08:14, then Variyana.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Shashthi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava ended at 19:02 Sun, when the lead reached 66°; Taitila runs until 05:51.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:34 to 05:35 Tue, so the hours after midnight still belong to Somawara.

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, 27 Jul, 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 27 Jun, 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: 31 Mar 2090, 07:49 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 90.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2147; Shaka Samvat numbers it 2012.
