Panchang in Thazhecode, Kerala Fri 29 Jun 2029

The Sankashti fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 05:46 on Fri 29 Jun to 05:59 on Sat 30 Jun, so it holds moonrise only on Fri 29 Jun, at 21:35. No text giving Sankashti Chaturthi’s time was found; moonrise is Tithika’s convention.

Sankashti Chaturthi: every date in Thazhecode

The Moon gains on the Sun about 12° a day. Each 12° of lead is one tithi: 216°–228° is the 19th, Krishna Chaturthi. A day takes the tithi in force at its sunrise, 06:06 here. Tritiya ended at 05:46, before it. Chaturthi ends at 05:59 Sat, when the lead reaches 228°. The lead passed 180° at the full moon of 26 Jun, so the Moon is waning: Krishna paksha.

The night of Thu 28 Jun ran from sunset 18:52 Thu to sunrise 06:06, 11 h 14 m. Cut into 15 muhurtas of 44 m, its 14th is Brahma Muhurta, the one before the last.

Daylight here, 06:06 to 18:52, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 35 m. Their names follow a fixed order that starts from the weekday, and each name is counted good, neutral or bad.

The night here, 18:52 to 06:06 Sat, splits into 8 choghadiyas of 1 h 24 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′. Shravana spans 280°00′–293°20′; the Moon entered its pada 3 at 286°40′. It leaves at 13:15, for Dhanishtha.

Add the Sun's and the Moon's places among the stars: 73.3° + 289.5° = 362.8°, one full turn and 2.8°. Past the turn, cut into 27 parts of 13°20′, it gives the yoga: 0°00′–13°20′ is the 1st, Vishkambha. It ends at 00:25 Sat, then Priti.

A karana is half a tithi: 6° of the Moon's lead, so the first half of Chaturthi is Bava and the second Balava. Bava runs until 17:48, when the lead reaches 222°; Balava until 05:59 Sat.

A Hindu day runs from one sunrise to the next, not midnight to midnight. This one runs 06:06 to 06:06 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: Vrishabha gives Jyeshtha. The Sun enters Mithuna on 15 Jun, inside the month. The next new moon, 11 Jul, 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 11 Jul, 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: 15 Mar 2029, 09:49 Thu. Since then the Sun has moved 102.7° round the stars. Vikram Samvat numbers that year 2086; Shaka Samvat numbers it 1951.
