Full panchang for Wed 1 Sep in SevanJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Wed 1 Sep in Sevan?
Janmashtami is on Wed 1 Sep: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 04:43 Wed.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 23:36–00:20 Thu. Ashtami: 04:43 to 07:06 Thu.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Ashtami runs from 04:43 on Wed 1 Sep to 07:06 on Thu 2 Sep, so only Wednesday night’s nishitha (23:36–00:20 Thu) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.
