तच्चान्द्रमानमंद्गौस्तु ज्ञेया द्वादद्गाभिस्तिथि:॥
{सूर्य सिद्धांत--मानाध्याय, श्लोक-13}A Tithi is a lunar day After the conjunction of Sun & Moon the time taken by Moon to go ahead of Sun by 12 degree is the period of 1 tithi. The average time of a tithi is 23H 37M 28S
Tithis vary in duration from
approximately 19 to 26 hours, according to the movement of the Moon. Each tithi
has a name, a ruling planet, and can be used in Muhurta (picking a proper
time).Amavasya is when the Sun and Moon's longitude is the same again.
Formula
to calculate tithi :
Longitude of Moon
–Longitude of Sun
12
Longitude
of Moon 5s- 3-49
Longitude
of Sun 11s 29-10
(153-49)- (359-10)
12
Adding
360 to longitude of Moon153.49+360=513.49
:. (513-49)-
(359-10)
12
Quotient =12 so tithi on 13 april 2014 is 12+1 i.e.
triyodashi

HereTrittya tithi (3rd ) is ruled by Mars but as it is Jaya (ruled by
akash/Jupiter) so it will bring two people together, as akash is the binding
force (that keeps the jiva in the body). Ekadasi tithi (11th ) is ruled by Mars
and it is Nanda (ruled by fire-Mars) so the fighting is very strong. Mars is
passionate, energetic, and creates conflict, it is not good for marriage,
though it is good for war and leadership.
When certain Tithis line up with specific Varas (days) they are considered
auspicious and therefore work on those days is accomplished successfully.
If Pratipat (1st ), Shashti (6th ), or Dwadashi (12th ) fall on a Friday,
it is considered auspicious
Types of
Tithi
There are several types of Tithi. To know the auspicious Tithi one must know about them.

According to Mansagri :
“A person born in Shukla Paksha is elegant like full Moon, wealthy, industrious, well read in shastras, efficient and learned”:
On the contrary, an individual born in Krishna Paksha is “cruel, harsh in speech, hates women, dull-witted, earns livelihood with the help of others and has a big family.” It is observed that the culmination of progress in an individual’s life is directly related to the tithi on which the birth takes place in Shukla Paksha from the New Moon until the Full Moon. On the other hand, those born in Krishna paksha seem to have difficulty in adjusting themselves in their environment and subject to other indications in the horoscope, are not as successful.Krishna Paksha people born in wealthy families in many cases end up in poverty or lose their authority and power, unless there are other strong favourable Yogas to sustain them in life.
