Full panchang for Wed 2 Sep in MyjavaJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Wed 2 Sep in Myjava?
Janmashtami is on Wed 2 Sep: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 04:38 Wed.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 00:28 Thu–01:10 Thu. Ashtami: 04:38 to 06:49 Thu.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Ashtami runs from 04:38 on Wed 2 Sep to 06:49 on Thu 3 Sep, so only Wednesday night’s nishitha (00:28 Thu–01:10 Thu) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.

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