Why is Holika Dahan on Wed 27 Feb in Sevan?
Holika Dahan is on Wed 27 Feb, in bhadra’s tail (puchha), 22:33–23:52.
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 22:33–23:52.
Purnima holds all of pradosha, 18:49–21:22. Purnima: 13:58 to 16:22 Thu.
Purnima ended at 16:22; pradosha is Pratipada. Purnima: 13:58 Wed to 16:22.
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 13:58 on Wed 27 Feb to 16:22 on Thu 28 Feb, so only Wednesday’s pradosha (18:49–21:22) falls within it. Bhadra lasts until 03:09 Thu, past nishitha, so the Dharmasindhu allows its tail, the puchha. Tithika places the puchha at 22:33–23:52, scaled from its ghatis: Tithika’s convention.
