Why is Holika Dahan on Mon 9 Mar in Myshkin?
Holika Dahan is on Mon 9 Mar: Purnima touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Pradosha is Chaturdashi; Purnima begins at 00:34 Mon.
Purnima holds pradosha only until 20:47; then Pratipada. Purnima: 00:34 to 20:47.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). 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 00:34 on Mon 9 Mar to 20:47 on Mon 9 Mar, so it touches only Monday’s pradosha (18:16–20:47).
The rule
Phalguna Purnima
Holika is burnt in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset, outside bhadra.
- Smarta
- the evening whose pradosha Purnima holds; when it touches both, the later; when neither, the earlier; out of bhadra, or in its tail (puchha) when bhadra lasts past nishitha (Dharmasindhu).
- Vaishnava
- the Smarta day.
