Full panchang for Sat 7 Sep in SimrishamnJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Sat 7 Sep in Simrishamn?
By the Dharmasindhu, Janmashtami is on Sat 7 Sep: Ashtami touches nishitha on both nights and it takes the later.
Saptami until 01:10 Sat, inside nishitha; then Ashtami. Ashtami: 01:10 Sat to 03:12 Sun.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 00:39 Sun–01:22 Sun. Ashtami: 01:10 to 03:12 Sun.
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 01:10 on Sat 7 Sep to 03:12 on Sun 8 Sep, touching nishitha on both nights. When it does, the Dharmasindhu takes the later day: Sat 7 Sep. Every reading takes that day.
