Holika Dahan muhurat: what time?
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 03:17 Thu–04:21 Thu.
Why is Holika Dahan on Wed 7 Mar in Codcod?
Holika Dahan is on Wed 7 Mar, in bhadra’s tail (puchha), 03:17 Thu–04:21 Thu.
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 03:17 Thu–04:21 Thu.
Pradosha is Chaturdashi; Purnima begins at 20:22. Purnima: 20:22 to 17:39 Thu.
Purnima ended at 17:39; pradosha is Pratipada. Purnima: 20:22 Wed to 17:39.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). 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 20:22 on Wed 7 Mar to 17:39 on Thu 8 Mar, between the two evenings’ pradosha, touching neither. The Dharmasindhu then takes the earlier day: Wed 7 Mar. Bhadra lasts until 07:01 Thu, past nishitha, so the Dharmasindhu allows its tail, the puchha. Tithika places the puchha at 03:17 Thu–04:21 Thu, scaled from its ghatis: Tithika’s convention.
