At sunrise the Moon is 1.1° ahead of the Sun. 1.1 ÷ 12° = 0.09, which puts it in lunar day 1 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish

At sunrise the Moon is at 145.4° in the sidereal zodiac. 145.4 ÷ 13°20′ = 10.90, which puts it in nakshatra 11 of 27.

Abhijit12:31 PM – 1:22 PM
Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 52 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
