Holika Dahan muhurat: what time?
Why is Holika Dahan on Wed 14 Mar in Sevan?
Holika Dahan is on Wed 14 Mar: Purnima touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Pradosha is Chaturdashi; Purnima begins at 23:31. Purnima: 23:31 to 20:14 Wed.
Purnima holds pradosha only until 20:14; then Pratipada. Purnima: 23:31 Tue to 20:14.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). 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 23:31 on Tue 13 Mar to 20:14 on Wed 14 Mar, so it touches only Wednesday’s pradosha (19:05–21:30).
