Holika Dahan muhurat: what time?
Holika Dahan muhurat: the time after bhadra, at 23:58.
Why is Holika Dahan on Mon 2 Mar in Midleton?
Holika Dahan is on Mon 2 Mar, after bhadra ends at 23:58.
Holika Dahan muhurat: the time after bhadra, at 23:58.
Purnima holds all of pradosha, 18:14–20:50. Purnima: 12:26 to 11:37 Tue.
Purnima ended at 11:37; pradosha is Pratipada.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC). 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 12:26 on Mon 2 Mar to 11:37 on Tue 3 Mar, so only Monday’s pradosha (18:14–20:50) falls within it. Bhadra lasts until 23:58, and the Dharmasindhu keeps the rite out of bhadra: it is done from 23:58.
