Full panchang for Mon 3 Sep in SevanJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Mon 3 Sep in Sevan?
Janmashtami is on Mon 3 Sep: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 02:43 Mon. Ashtami: 02:43 Mon to 04:39 Tue.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 23:35–00:19 Tue. Ashtami: 02:43 to 04:39 Tue.
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 02:43 on Mon 3 Sep to 04:39 on Tue 4 Sep, so only Monday night’s nishitha (23:35–00:19 Tue) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.
The rule

- Vaishnava
- a Ashtami that Saptami does not pierce, read at sunrise: Tithika’s convention.
