Panchang in Sevan, Gegharkunik, Armenia Thu 21 Jun 2091

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 36°–48° is the 4th, Shukla Chaturthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:29 here. Tritiya ended at 06:34 Wed, before it. Chaturthi ends at 05:48, when the lead reaches 48°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 17 Jun, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise. Panchami began at 05:48 and ended at 04:41 Fri, between the sunrises of 05:29 and 05:30 Fri. Thursday reads Chaturthi and Friday reads Shashthi: Panchami is a kshaya tithi here.

The night of Wed 20 Jun ran from sunset 20:33 Wed to sunrise 05:29, 8 h 56 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 35 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:29 to 20:34, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 53 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 05:30 Fri, 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′. Ashlesha spans 106°40′–120°00′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 110°. It leaves at 18:27, for Magha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 64.9° + 112.7° = 177.6°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 173°20′–186°40′ is the 14th, Harshana. It ends at 20:34, then Vajra.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturthi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 18:13 Wed, when the lead reached 42°; Vishti runs until 05:48.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:29 to 05:30 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 17 Jun 06:42 Sun to 16 Jul 18:17 Mon the Sun stayed in Mithuna, entering Karka at 17 Jul 13:52 Tue, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Ashadha, before Ashadha 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 Jun, with the Sun in Mithuna, began Ashadha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Ashadha (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 20 Mar 2091, 07:47 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 90.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2148; Shaka Samvat numbers it 2013.
