How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 5 Dec? Krishna Dwadashi
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 317.5°: 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, 07:41 here. Ekadashi ended at 20:15 Fri, before it. Dwadashi ends at 21:22, when the lead reaches 324°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 24 Nov, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sat 5 Dec? 05:42–06:42
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:42–06:42.
The night of Fri 4 Dec ran from sunset 16:53 Fri to sunrise 07:41, 14 h 48 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 59 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas
When is Abhijit Muhurat on Sat 5 Dec? 11:58–12:35
Abhijit is the 8th of 15 equal parts of daylight, the one around midday: 11:58–12:35.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 5 Dec? 07:41–08:18
Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 07:41–08:18 and 08:18–08:54.
When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 5 Dec? 08:18–08:54
Dur Muhurtam is the 1st and 2nd of 15 equal parts of daylight: 07:41–08:18 and 08:18–08:54.
Daylight here, 07:41 to 16:53, is cut into 15 muhurtas of 36 m. Abhijit is the 8th, the middle one. Dur Muhurtam on a Saturday is the 1st and 2nd, 07:41–08:18 and 08:18–08:54.
Which choghadiya is good on Sat 5 Dec?
07:41–08:50 is Kala, ruled by Shani (Saturn), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 07:41 to 16:53, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 9 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.
The night here, 16:53 to 07:42 Sun, 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.
Daylight in 8 parts
When is Rahu Kaal on Sat 5 Dec? 09:59–11:08
Rahu Kaal (Rahu Kalam) is the 3rd of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight: 09:59–11:08.
When is Yamagandam on Sat 5 Dec? 13:26–14:35
Yamaganda is the 6th of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight: 13:26–14:35.
When is Gulika Kalam on Sat 5 Dec? 07:41–08:50
Gulikai Kalam is the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight: 07:41–08:50.
Daylight here runs 07:41 to 16:53, 9 h 12 m. Cut into 8 equal parts of 1 h 9 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.

Day here: sunrise 07:41, sunset 16:53, 9 h 12 m of daylight.
What time is sunset on Sat 5 Dec? 16:53
Day here: sunrise 07:41, sunset 16:53, 9 h 12 m of daylight.

Which nakshatra is it on Sat 5 Dec? Chitra
At sunrise the Moon was at 186.3°: Chitra, pada 4.
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 4 at 183°20′. It leaves at 08:19, for Swati.
Which yoga is it on Sat 5 Dec? Shobhana
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 415.2°, one turn and 55.2°: Shobhana.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 228.9° + 186.3° = 415.2°, one full turn and 55.2°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 53°20′–66°40′ is the 5th, Shobhana. It ends at 04:11 Sun, then Atiganda.
Which karana is it on Sat 5 Dec? Kaulava
At sunrise the lead was 317.5°: 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 08:45, when the lead reaches 318°; Taitila until 21:22.
Which vara is Sat 5 Dec, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 07:41 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:41 to 07:42 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 5 Dec in (amanta)? Kartika
This month began at the new moon of 9 Nov, with the Sun in Tula: Kartika.
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: Tula gives Kartika. The Sun enters Vrishchika on 16 Nov, inside the month. The next new moon, 9 Dec, finds it in Vrishchika and begins Margashirsha.
Which Hindu month is Sat 5 Dec in (purnimanta)? Margashirsha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waning half already belongs to Margashirsha.
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 9 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika, begins Margashirsha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Margashirsha here, and Kartika in the amanta count.
Which samvat year is Sat 5 Dec in? Vikram 2083 · Shaka 1948
Vikram Samvat 2083 began at the Chaitra new moon of 19 Mar 2026.
A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 2026, 03:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 254.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.

What time is moonrise on Sat 5 Dec? 05:17 Sun
