How each value is worked out
Which tithi is on Sat 12 Dec? Shukla Tritiya
At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 34.7°: Shukla Tritiya.
The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 24°–36° is the 3rd, Shukla Tritiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:47 here. Dwitiya ended at 07:53 Fri, before it. Tritiya ends at 10:36, when the lead reaches 36°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 Dec, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.
What time is Brahma Muhurta on Sat 12 Dec? 05:48–06:48
Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 05:48–06:48.
The night of Fri 11 Dec ran from sunset 16:53 Fri to sunrise 07:47, 14 h 54 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 59 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.
Daylight in 15 muhurtas

When is Dur Muhurtam on Sat 12 Dec? 08:24–09:00

Daylight here, 07:47 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, 07:47–08:24 and 08:24–09:00.
Which choghadiya is good on Sat 12 Dec?
07:47–08:55 is Kala, ruled by Shani (Saturn), the 1st of 8 equal parts of Saturday's daylight, counted bad.
Daylight here, 07:47 to 16:53, 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.
The night here, 16:53 to 07:48 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.

Which nakshatra is it on Sat 12 Dec? Uttara Ashadha
At sunrise the Moon was at 270.7°: Uttara Ashadha, pada 2.
The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Uttara Ashadha spans 266°40′–280°00′; the Moon entered its pada 2 at 270°. It leaves at 02:42 Sun, for Shravana.
Which yoga is it on Sat 12 Dec? Dhruva
At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 506.7°, one turn and 146.7°: Dhruva.
Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 236° + 270.7° = 506.7°, one full turn and 146.7°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 146°40′–160°00′ is the 12th, Dhruva. It ends at 08:44 Sun, then Vyaghata.
Which karana is it on Sat 12 Dec? Garaja
At sunrise the lead was 34.7°: the second half of Tritiya, Garaja.
A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Tritiya is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila ended at 21:14 Fri, when the lead reached 30°; Garaja runs until 10:36.
Which vara is Sat 12 Dec, and from when? Shaniwara
This day began at sunrise, 07:47 on Saturday: Shaniwara.
A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:47 to 07:48 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.
Which Hindu month is Sat 12 Dec in (amanta)? Margashirsha
This month began at the new moon of 9 Dec, with the Sun in Vrishchika: Margashirsha.
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: Vrishchika gives Margashirsha. The Sun enters Dhanu on 16 Dec, inside the month. The next new moon, 7 Jan, finds it in Dhanu and begins Pausha.
Which Hindu month is Sat 12 Dec in (purnimanta)? Margashirsha
Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half 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, began Margashirsha. This Shukla paksha reads Margashirsha in both counts.
Which samvat year is Sat 12 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 261.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.

What time is moonrise on Sat 12 Dec? 10:30
