Why is Janmashtami on Thu 17 Aug in Myjava?

Janmashtami is on Thu 17 Aug: Ashtami touches nishitha that night, and no other.

Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 02:02 Thu. Ashtami: 02:02 Thu to 00:13 Fri.

Ashtami holds nishitha only until 00:13 Fri; then Navami. Ashtami: 02:02 to 00:13 Fri.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.

Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Ashtami runs from 02:02 on Thu 17 Aug to 00:13 on Fri 18 Aug, so it touches only Thursday night’s nishitha (23:34–00:13 Fri). Every reading takes that day.

The rule

Bhadrapada Krishna Ashtami (purnimanta) · Shravana Krishna Ashtami (amanta)

Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta.

Smarta: the night whose nishitha Ashtami holds; when it touches both or neither, the later (Dharmasindhu).
Vaishnava: a Ashtami that Saptami does not pierce, read at sunrise: Tithika’s convention.
