At sunrise the Moon is 87.3° ahead of the Sun. 87.3 ÷ 12° = 7.28, which puts it in lunar day 8 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish

At sunrise the Moon is at 57.7° in the sidereal zodiac. 57.7 ÷ 13°20′ = 4.33, which puts it in nakshatra 5 of 27.
SunRises 7:30 AM, sets 7:24 PM

Abhijit1:03 PM – 1:51 PM
Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 48 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
