Panchang in Split, Split-Dalmatia, Croatia Thu 21 May 2026

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 60°–72° is the 6th, Shukla Shashthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 05:24 here. Panchami ended at 04:57, before it. Shashthi ends at 02:55 Fri, when the lead reaches 72°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 16 May, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

The night of Wed 20 May ran from sunset 20:17 Wed to sunrise 05:24, 9 h 7 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 36 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 05:24 to 20:18, 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, 20:18 to 05:23 Fri, 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 fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Pushya spans 93°20′–106°40′; the Moon entered its pada 1 at 93°20′. It leaves at 23:19, for Ashlesha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 35.9° + 96.1° = 132°. The sum, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, gives the yoga: 120°00′–133°20′ is the 10th, Ganda. It ends at 07:28, then Vriddhi.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Shashthi is Kaulava and the second Taitila. Kaulava runs until 15:51, when the lead reaches 66°; Taitila until 02:55 Fri.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 05:24 to 05:23 Fri, so the hours after midnight still belong to Guruwara.

A month normally holds one sankranti, the Sun's entry into a new rashi. From 16 May 22:01 Sat to 15 Jun 04:54 Mon the Sun stayed in Vrishabha, entering Mithuna at 15 Jun 09:22 Mon, after the new moon. A month with no sankranti is Adhika Jyeshtha, before Jyeshtha itself.

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 16 May, with the Sun in Vrishabha, began Jyeshtha (Adhik). This Shukla paksha reads Jyeshtha (Adhik) in both counts.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 19 Mar 2026, 02:23 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 61.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2083; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1948.
