When is Holika Dahan 1968 in Myjava?
Holika Dahan muhurat: what time?
Why is Holika Dahan on Thu 14 Mar in Myjava?
Holika Dahan is on Thu 14 Mar: Purnima touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Pradosha is Chaturdashi; Purnima begins at 22:15. Purnima: 22:15 to 19:52 Thu.
Purnima holds pradosha only until 19:52; then Pratipada. Purnima: 22:15 Wed to 19:52.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Box: Pradosha. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Holika is burnt in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset, outside bhadra. Purnima runs from 22:15 on Wed 13 Mar to 19:52 on Thu 14 Mar, so it touches only Thursday’s pradosha (17:53–20:19).
