Full panchang for Sun 14 Aug in CodcodJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Sun 14 Aug in Codcod?
Janmashtami is on Sun 14 Aug: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 00:58 Sun. Ashtami: 00:58 Sun to 02:23 Mon.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 23:28–00:14 Mon. Ashtami: 00:58 to 02:23 Mon.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Ashtami runs from 00:58 on Sun 14 Aug to 02:23 on Mon 15 Aug, so only Sunday night’s nishitha (23:28–00:14 Mon) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.
The rule

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