Panchang in Split, Split-Dalmatia, Croatia Sat 14 Jun 2014

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 192°–204° is the 17th, Krishna Dwitiya. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:12 here. Pratipada ended at 03:03, before it. Dwitiya ends at 23:43, when the lead reaches 204°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 13 Jun, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise.

Sunrise here, 05:22, came before Pratipada ended at 06:33: this day reads Pratipada. Dwitiya ends at 03:13 Sun, before the next sunrise, so no day here reads Dwitiya: it is kshaya.

Sunrise here, 05:12, came after Pratipada ended at 03:03: this day reads Dwitiya.

The night of Fri 13 Jun ran from sunset 20:36 Fri to sunrise 05:12, 8 h 36 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 34 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:12 to 20:36, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 55 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 20:36 to 05:12 Sun, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 4 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Mula spans 240°00′–253°20′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 250°. It leaves at 07:02, for Purva Ashadha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 59° + 252.2° = 311.2°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 306°40′–320°00′ is the 24th, Shukla. It ends at 18:37, then Brahma.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dwitiya is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila runs until 13:24, when the lead reaches 198°; Garaja until 23:43.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:12 to 05:12 Sun, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shaniwara.

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, 27 Jun, finds it in Mithuna and begins Ashadha.

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 27 Jun, with the Sun in Mithuna, begins Ashadha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Ashadha here, and Jyeshtha in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 30 Mar 2014, 20:44 Sun. Since then the Sun has moved 73.1° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2071; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1936.
