Panchang in Split, Split-Dalmatia, Croatia Fri 26 Nov 2027

Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 05:18 on Fri 26 Nov to 04:37 on Sat 27 Nov, so only Friday night’s nishitha (23:12–00:11 Sat) falls within it. No text giving Masik Shivratri’s time was found; nishitha is Tithika’s convention.

Masik Shivratri: every date in Split

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 336°–348° is the 29th, Krishna Chaturdashi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 07:01 here. Trayodashi ended at 05:18, before it. Chaturdashi ends at 04:37 Sat, when the lead reaches 348°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 14 Nov, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Thu 25 Nov ran from sunset 16:22 Thu to sunrise 07:01, 14 h 39 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 58 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 07:01 to 16:21, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 10 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 16:21 to 07:02 Sat, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 50 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′. Swati spans 186°40′–200°00′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 193°20′. It leaves at 13:29, for Vishakha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 219.5° + 196.4° = 415.9°, one full turn and 55.9°. 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 01:02 Sat, then Atiganda.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturdashi is Vishti and the second Shakuni. Vishti runs until 16:54, when the lead reaches 342°; Shakuni until 04:37 Sat.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 07:01 to 07:02 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.

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, 28 Nov, finds it in Vrishchika and begins 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 28 Nov, with the Sun in Vrishchika, begins Margashirsha. Until then this Krishna paksha reads Margashirsha here, and Kartika in the amanta count.

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 7 Apr 2027, 01:51 Wed. Since then the Sun has moved 226.8° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2084; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1949.
