Full panchang for Sun 5 Sep in AtliacaJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Sun 5 Sep in Atliaca?
Janmashtami is on Sun 5 Sep: Ashtami touches nishitha on neither night, and the later day is taken.
Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 01:26 Sun. Ashtami: 01:26 Sun to 23:25 Sun.
Ashtami ended at 23:25; nishitha is Navami. Ashtami: 01:26 to 23:25.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−7). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Ashtami runs from 01:26 on Sun 5 Sep to 23:25 on Sun 5 Sep, between the two nights’ nishitha, touching neither. The Dharmasindhu then takes the later day: Sun 5 Sep. 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.
