  Lunar days in the Hindu calendar are called tithis. They are calculated using the difference of the longitudinal angle between the position of the sun and moon. Because of this, tithis may vary in length.
Consequently, the tithi may or may not have changed by the time the day has changed at sunrise.
And that is why we find at certain times a tithi being omitted, and at certain times, two consecutive days sharing the same tithi.
The (anticlockwise) angular distance between the sun and moon as measured from the earth along the ecliptic (circle on the sky in which the sun, moon and planets seem to move) can vary between 0° and 360°. This is divided into 30 parts.
Each part ends at 12°, 24° etc. The time spent by the moon in each of these parts (i.e. the time taken for the angular distance to increase in steps of 12° starting from 0°) is called one tithi. The month has two paksha -s or fortnights.
The first 15 tithi -s constitute the bright fortnight or shukla paksha and the next 15 tithi -s constitute the dark fortnight or krishna paksha . tithi -s are indicated by their paksha and ordinal number within the paksha .
The 15th tithi of the bright fortnight (full moon) is called purnima and the 15th tithi of the dark fortnight (new moon) is called amavasya . The tithi in which the moon is at the time of sunrise of a day is taken to be the tithi for the day.
While selecting a suitable day and time for any undertaking, the prevalent Tithi (Lunar day), Nakshatra (Star constellation in which the moon is placed at that time) and the Yoga (auspiciousness) are taken into consideration. Here are details of 15 Tithis.
