How each value is worked out
Why is Nirjala Ekadashi on Wed 31 May in Sofia?
Nirjala Ekadashi is on Wed 31 May: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Wed 31 May only, at 05:52: Wed 31 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 10:38 Tue, before it (04:16–05:52).
Which tithi is on Wed 31 May? Shukla Ekadashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 129.3°: Shukla Ekadashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 120°–132° is the 11th, Shukla Ekadashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:52 here. Dashami ended at 10:38 Tue, before it. Ekadashi ends at 11:16, when the lead reaches 132°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 19 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Wed 31 May? 04:40–05:16
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:40–05:16.
The night of Tue 30 May ran from sunset 20:56 Tue to sunrise 05:52, 8 h 56 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 35 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Dur Muhurtam on Wed 31 May? 12:54–13:54
Dur Muhurtam is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight: 12:54–13:54.
Daylight here, 05:52 to 20:57, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 1 h 0 m. Dur Muhurtam on a Wednesday is the 8th, 12:54–13:54: it takes the 8th, the middle one, so a Wednesday has no Abhijit.
Which choghadiya is good on Wed 31 May?
05:52–07:45 is Labha, ruled by Budha (Mercury), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight, counted good.
Daylight here, 05:52 to 20:57, 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, 20:57 to 05:51 Thu, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 6 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 Wed 31 May? 13:24–15:17
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 5th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 13:24–15:17.
When is Yamagandam on Wed 31 May? 07:45–09:38
Yamaganda is the 2nd of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 07:45–09:38.
When is Gulika Kalam on Wed 31 May? 11:31–13:24
Gulikai Kalam is the 4th of 8 equal parts of Wednesday's daylight: 11:31–13:24.
Daylight here runs 05:52 to 20:57, 15 h 5 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 53 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Wednesday Rahu Kaal is the 5th part, Yamaganda the 2nd and Gulikai Kalam the 4th.
Sunrise and sunset
What time is sunrise on Wed 31 May? 05:52
Day here: sunrise 05:52, sunset 20:57, 15 h 5 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Wed 31 May? 20:57
Day here: sunrise 05:52, sunset 20:57, 15 h 5 m of daylight.
Sunrise and sunset are computed for this place. Daylight lasts 15 h 5 m and the night until the next sunrise 8 h 54 m; every window and choghadiya is cut from these two lengths.

Which nakshatra is it on Wed 31 May? Chitra
At sunrise the Moon was at 174.6°: Chitra, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Chitra spans 173°20′–186°40′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 173°20′. It leaves at 04:18 Thu, for Swati.
Which yoga is it on Wed 31 May? Vyatipata
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 219.9°: Vyatipata.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 45.3° + 174.6° = 219.9°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 17:44, then Variyana.
Which karana is it on Wed 31 May? Vishti
At sunrise the lead was 129.3°: the second half of Ekadashi, Vishti.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Ekadashi is Vanija and the second Vishti. Vanija ended at 23:03 Tue, when the lead reached 126°; Vishti runs until 11:16.
Which vara is Wed 31 May, and from when? Budhawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:52 on Wednesday: Budhawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:52 to 05:51 Thu, so the hours after midnight still belong to Budhawara.
Which Hindu month is Wed 31 May in (amanta)? Jyeshtha
This month began at the new moon of 19 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha: Jyeshtha.
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: Vrishabha gives Jyeshtha. The Sun enters Mithuna on 15 Jun, inside the month. The next new moon, 18 Jun, finds it in Mithuna and begins Ashadha.
Which Hindu month is Wed 31 May in (purnimanta)? Jyeshtha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Jyeshtha.
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 19 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha. This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Wed 31 May in? Vikram 2080 · Shaka 1945
Vikram Samvat 2080 began at the Chaitra new moon of 21 Mar 2023.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 21 Mar 2023, 19:23 Tue. Since then the Sun has moved 68.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2080; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1945.

What time is moonrise on Wed 31 May? 16:57
