Full panchang for Sat 6 Sep in SevanJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Sat 6 Sep in Sevan?
Janmashtami is on Sat 6 Sep: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 01:36 Sat. Ashtami: 01:36 Sat to 03:00 Sun.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 00:36 Sun–01:20 Sun. Ashtami: 01:36 to 03:00 Sun.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Ashtami runs from 01:36 on Sat 6 Sep to 03:00 on Sun 7 Sep, so only Saturday night’s nishitha (00:36 Sun–01:20 Sun) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.

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