How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 17 Jan? Krishna Dwadashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 315.5°: Krishna Dwadashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 312°–324° is the 27th, Krishna Dwadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:53 here. Ekadashi ended at 01:09, before it. Dwadashi ends at 23:37, when the lead reaches 324°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 5 Jan, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sat 17 Jan? 05:57–06:55
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:57–06:55.
The night of Fri 16 Jan ran from sunset 17:19 Fri to sunrise 07:53, 14 h 34 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 58 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Sat 17 Jan? 12:18–12:55
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 12:18–12:55.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 17 Jan? 07:53–08:31
Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 07:53–08:31 and 08:31–09:09.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 17 Jan? 08:31–09:09
Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 07:53–08:31 and 08:31–09:09.
Daylight here, 07:53 to 17:20, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 37 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Saturday is the 1st and 2nd, 07:53–08:31 and 08:31–09:09.
Which choghadiya is good on Sat 17 Jan?
07:53–09:04 is Kala, ruled by Shani (Saturn), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 07:53 to 17:20, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 10 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 17:20 to 07:53 Sun, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 49 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
Daylight in 8 parts
When is Rahu Kaal on Sat 17 Jan? 10:15–11:26
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 3rd of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight: 10:15–11:26.
When is Yamagandam on Sat 17 Jan? 13:47–14:58
Yamaganda is the 6th of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight: 13:47–14:58.
When is Gulika Kalam on Sat 17 Jan? 07:53–09:04
Gulikai Kalam is the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight: 07:53–09:04.
Daylight here runs 07:53 to 17:20, 9 h 27 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 10 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Saturday Rahu Kaal is the 3rd part, Yamaganda the 6th and Gulikai Kalam the 1st.

Which nakshatra is it on Sat 17 Jan? Jyeshtha
At sunrise the Moon was at 228.3°: Jyeshtha, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Jyeshtha spans 226°40′–240°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 226°40′. It leaves at 04:04 Sun, for Mula.
Which yoga is it on Sat 17 Jan? Vriddhi
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 501°, one turn and 141°: Vriddhi.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 272.7° + 228.3° = 501°, one full turn and 141°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 133°20′–146°40′ is the 11th, Vriddhi. It ends at 17:04, then Dhruva.
Which karana is it on Sat 17 Jan? Kaulava
At sunrise the lead was 315.5°: the first half of Dwadashi, Kaulava.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwadashi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava runs until 12:29, when the lead reaches 318°; Taitila until 23:37.
Which vara is Sat 17 Jan, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 07:53 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:53 to 07:53 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 17 Jan in (amanta)? Pausha
This month began at the new moon of 22 Dec, with the Sun in Dhanu: Pausha.
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: Dhanu gives Pausha. The Sun enters Makara on 14 Jan, inside the month. The next new moon, 20 Jan, finds it in Makara and begins Magha.
Which Hindu month is Sat 17 Jan in (purnimanta)? Magha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waning half already belongs to Magha.
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 20 Jan, with the Sun in Makara, begins Magha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Magha here, and Pausha in the amanta count.
Which samvat year is Sat 17 Jan in? Vikram 2071 · Shaka 1936
Vikram Samvat 2071 began at the Chaitra new moon of 30 Mar 2014.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 30 Mar 2014, 21:44 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 286.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2071; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1936.

What time is moonrise on Sat 17 Jan? 05:29 Sun

What time is moonset on Sat 17 Jan? 14:30
