How each value is worked out

Which tithi is on Fri 18 Mar? Shukla Dashami

At sunrise the Moon led the Sun by 118.5°: Shukla Dashami.

Sun New moon 0° 118.5° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Dashami 108°–120° Full moon 180°
Sun New moon 0° 118.5° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Dashami 108°–120° Full moon 180°
Earth at the centre · Sun fixed at the top · Moon moves counter-clockwise · not to scale

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 108°–120° is the 10th, Shukla Dashami. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:31 here. Navami ended at 09:32 Thu, before it. Dashami ends at 09:38, when the lead reaches 120°. The lead passed 0° at the new moon of 9 Mar, so the Moon is waxing: Shukla paksha.

What time is Brahma Muhurta on Fri 18 Mar? 04:56–05:43

Brahma Muhurta is the 14th of 15 equal parts of the night before sunrise: 04:56–05:43.

Which nakshatra is it on Fri 18 Mar? Punarvasu

At sunrise the Moon was at 92.2°: Punarvasu, pada 4.

Moon Sun 0° Punarvasu Moon 92.2° next: Pushya Earth
Moon Sun 0° Punarvasu Moon 92.2° next: Pushya Earth
Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · 0° at the top, counter-clockwise

The fixed stars divide the Moon's path into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′, each in 4 padas of 3°20′. Punarvasu spans 80°00′–93°20′; the Moon entered its pada 4 at 90°. It leaves at 08:33, for Pushya.

Which yoga is it on Fri 18 Mar? Shobhana

At sunrise the Sun and Moon together made 426°, one turn and 66°: Shobhana.

Sun 333.8° + Moon 92.2° = 426.0° one turn + 66.0° Shobhana 53°20′–66°40′ Moon Sun 0°
Sun 333.8° + Moon 92.2° = 426.0° one turn + 66.0° Shobhana 53°20′–66°40′ Moon Sun 0°
Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · 0° at the top, counter-clockwise

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 333.8° + 92.2° = 426°, one full turn and 66°. 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 07:37, then Atiganda.

Which karana is it on Fri 18 Mar? Garaja

At sunrise the lead was 118.5°: the second half of Dashami, Garaja.

Sun New moon 0° 118.5° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Dashami 108°–120° Garaja 114°–120° Full moon 180°
Sun New moon 0° 118.5° Moon's lead Shukla Krishna Dashami 108°–120° Garaja 114°–120° Full moon 180°
Earth at the centre · Sun fixed at the top · Moon moves counter-clockwise · each 12° tithi halved into karanas · not to scale

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Dashami is Taitila and the second Garaja. Taitila ended at 21:30 Thu, when the lead reached 114°; Garaja runs until 09:38.

Which vara is Fri 18 Mar, and from when? Shukrawara

This day began at sunrise, 06:31 on Friday: Shukrawara.

Shukrawara Sunrise 06:31 Sunset 18:36 Sunrise 06:30 Sat time, not height 00:00 Sat still Shukrawara
Shukrawara Sunrise 06:31 Sunset 18:36 Sunrise 06:30 Sat time, not height 00:00 Sat still Shukrawara
One turn of the wheel is one vara, sunrise to sunrise · clockwise

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:31 to 06:30 Sat, so the hours after midnight still belong to Shukrawara.

Which Hindu month is Fri 18 Mar in (amanta)? Phalguna

This month began at the new moon of 9 Mar, with the Sun in Kumbha: Phalguna.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Kumbha Meena 0° Earth
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Kumbha Meena 0° Earth
Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · ring: the Sun's yearly path in 12 rashis of 30°, numbered from 0° · Sun's path from new moon to new moon

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: Kumbha gives Phalguna. The Sun enters Meena on 14 Mar, inside the month. The next new moon, 7 Apr, finds it in Meena and begins Chaitra.

Which Hindu month is Fri 18 Mar in (purnimanta)? Phalguna

Counted full moon to full moon, this waxing half belongs to Phalguna.

Amanta Phalguna Purnimanta Phalguna Krishna Shukla Fri 18 Mar Full moon 22 Feb New moon 9 Mar Full moon 23 Mar New moon 7 Apr
Amanta Phalguna Purnimanta Phalguna Krishna Shukla Fri 18 Mar Full moon 22 Feb New moon 9 Mar Full moon 23 Mar New moon 7 Apr
Time runs left to right · amanta: new moon to new moon · purnimanta: full moon to full moon

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 Mar, with the Sun in Kumbha, began Phalguna. This Shukla paksha reads Phalguna in both counts.

Which samvat year is Fri 18 Mar in? Vikram 2072 · Shaka 1937

Vikram Samvat 2072 began at the Chaitra new moon of 20 Mar 2015.

Stars fixed · sidereal, Lahiri · ring: the Sun's yearly path in 12 rashis of 30°, numbered from 0° · Sun's path since the year began

A samvat year begins with Chaitra, the month whose new moon finds the Sun in Meena: 20 Mar 2015, 15:06 Fri. Since then the Sun has moved 358.4° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2072; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1937.
