How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Tue 21 May? Shukla Trayodashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 151.7°: Shukla Trayodashi.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 144°–156° is the 13th, Shukla Trayodashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:58 here. Dwadashi ended at 13:29 Mon, before it. Trayodashi ends at 15:10, when the lead reaches 156°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 8 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Tue 21 May? 04:45–05:21
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:45–05:21.
The night of Mon 20 May ran from sunset 20:47 Mon to sunrise 05:58, 9 h 11 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 36 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 21 May? 08:56–09:55
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 08:56–09:55, and the 7th of the night's 15, 00:28 Wed–01:05 Wed.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Tue 21 May? 00:28–01:05 Wed
Dur Muhurtam is the 4th of 15 equal parts of daylight, 08:56–09:55, and the 7th of the night's 15, 00:28 Wed–01:05 Wed.
Daylight here, 05:58 to 20:48, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 59 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Tuesday is the 4th and the night's 7th, 08:56–09:55 and 00:28 Wed–01:05 Wed.
Which choghadiya is good on Tue 21 May?
05:58–07:49 is Roga, ruled by Mangala (Mars), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 05:58 to 20:48, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 51 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 20:48 to 05:57 Wed, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 8 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 Tue 21 May? 17:06–18:57
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 7th of 8 equal parts of Tuesday's daylight: 17:06–18:57.

Daylight here runs 05:58 to 20:48, 14 h 50 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 51 m, it gives the day's windows by weekday: on a Tuesday Rahu Kaal is the 7th part, Yamaganda the 3rd and Gulikai Kalam the 5th.

Day here: sunrise 05:58, sunset 20:48, 14 h 50 m of daylight.

Which nakshatra is it on Tue 21 May? Swati
At sunrise the Moon was at 188°: Swati, pada 1.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Swati spans 186°40′–200°00′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 186°40′. It leaves at 05:16 Wed, for Vishakha.
Which yoga is it on Tue 21 May? Vyatipata
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 224.4°: Vyatipata.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 36.4° + 188° = 224.4°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 213°20′–226°40′ is the 17th, Vyatipata. It ends at 10:05, then Variyana.
Which karana is it on Tue 21 May? Taitila
At sunrise the lead was 151.7°: the second half of Trayodashi, Taitila.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Trayodashi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava ended at 02:23, when the lead reached 150°; Taitila runs until 15:10.
Which vara is Tue 21 May, and from when? Mangalawara
This day began at sunrise, 05:58 on Tuesday: Mangalawara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:58 to 05:57 Wed, so the hours after midnight still belong to Mangalawara.
Which Hindu month is Tue 21 May in (amanta)? Vaishakha
This month began at the new moon of 8 May, with the Sun in Mesha: Vaishakha.
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: Mesha gives Vaishakha. The Sun enters Vrishabha on 14 May, inside the month. The next new moon, 6 Jun, finds it in Vrishabha and begins Jyeshtha.
Which Hindu month is Tue 21 May in (purnimanta)? Vaishakha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Vaishakha.
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 8 May, with the Sun in Mesha, began Vaishakha. This Shukla paksha reads Vaishakha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Tue 21 May in? Vikram 2081 · Shaka 1946
Vikram Samvat 2081 began at the Chaitra new moon of 8 Apr 2024.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 8 Apr 2024, 21:20 Mon. Since then the Sun has moved 41.2° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2081; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1946.
