The whole day

Tomorrow
TithiTrayodashi until 10:10 AM, 5 Jan
At sunrise the Moon is 324.0° ahead of the Sun. 324.0 ÷ 12° = 27.00, which puts it in lunar day 28 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish
NakshatraAnuradha until 1:45 PMthen Jyeshtha until 4:37 PM, 5 Jan
At sunrise the Moon is at 223.7° in the sidereal zodiac. 223.7 ÷ 13°20′ = 16.78, which puts it in nakshatra 17 of 27.
SunRises 7:51 AM, sets 4:54 PM
Daylight today is 9h 3m. Sunrise and sunset are when the Sun’s upper edge crosses the horizon, allowing for the way the atmosphere bends light.
Abhijit12:05 PM – 12:41 PM
Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 36 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
Rahu Kaal8:59 AM – 10:07 AM
Daylight today is 543 minutes. Split it into 8 parts of 68 minutes. On Monday, Rahu Kaal is part 2. It’s a traditional rule, not an astronomical event. Why people avoid it

YogaGanda until 2:13 AM, 5 Janthen Vriddhi until 3:02 AM, 6 Jan
At sunrise the Sun and Moon’s longitudes add up to 123.4°. 123.4 ÷ 13°20′ = 9.26, which makes this yoga 10 of 27.
KaranaGara until 8:56 PMthen Vanija until 10:10 AM, 5 Jan
A karana is half a tithi: each 6° the Moon gains on the Sun.
PakshaKrishna · waning
Shukla is the bright half, from new moon to full moon. Krishna is the dark half, from full moon to new moon.
MonthPausha · Margashirsha in the south and west
North India usually ends a month at full moon, and much of the south and west at new moon. In the dark fortnight, the two count different months. Why there are two names
Moon · SunVrishchika · Dhanu
Sidereal positions at sunrise: Moon 223.7°, Sun 259.7°. Sidereal means 24.23° (the Lahiri ayanamsa) behind the zodiac used in Western astrology.
SamvatVikram 2083 · Shaka 1948
Vikram Samvat runs about 57 years ahead of the Gregorian year, and Shaka Samvat about 78 years behind it.
MoonRises 6:36 AM, 5 Jan, Sets 1:53 PM, 9.7% lit
A Hindu day runs from sunrise to sunrise, so a moonrise just before dawn belongs to the day before.

Why times differ in Toronto

At 43.7°N, 79.4°W, Toronto has 80 minutes less daylight than New Delhi today, which changes the length and timing of each traditional period. The tithi at sunrise differs from New Delhi’s today: sunrise here falls in a different lunar day.
