Purnimanta month convention for Cologne, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. The Hindu day runs sunrise to sunrise, so a Tithi or Nakshatra ending “after midnight” still belongs to this day. Sidereal positions use the Lahiri ayanamsa; other almanacs can differ by a few minutes. Methodology

Rahu Kaal, Abhijit Muhurat, Choghadiya and Hora are fractions of the local day, so they move with sunrise and sunset. Köln sits at 50.93°N, 6.95°E, 58 m above sea level, in the Europe/Berlin time zone.
Tithi and Nakshatra end at the same instant everywhere, but the local clock time differs, and the Tithi at Köln's own sunrise decides which date a festival or vrat falls on here.
Krishna Amavasya is the tithi at sunrise (07:02 AM) in Köln and lasts until 10:29 AM. The tithi at sunrise names the day.
Purva Bhadrapada (pada 1), until 05:28 AM, Mar 09.
Sunrise is at 07:02 AM and sunset at 06:25 PM, local time, for Köln's own coordinates.

A Panchang is the Hindu almanac. For each day it gives five details (panch anga, "five parts"): Tithi (lunar day), Vara (weekday), Nakshatra (the Moon's lunar mansion), Yoga (a Sun–Moon combination) and Karana (half a Tithi), along with sunrise-based timings used to choose a Muhurat.
Rahu Kaal is one-eighth of the daytime (sunrise to sunset), assigned to Rahu by weekday. Traditionally people avoid starting new ventures, signing agreements or beginning journeys in it. Because it depends on local sunrise and sunset, it differs from city to city and day to day.
A Tithi is the time the Moon takes to gain 12° on the Sun, so it can end at any hour. By convention the Tithi prevailing at sunrise names the day, which is why a festival can fall on a different civil date in different places.
