Full panchang for Mon 13 Aug in KhmelnytskyiJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Mon 13 Aug in Khmelnytskyi?
Janmashtami is on Mon 13 Aug: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 08:01 Mon.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 00:58 Tue–01:36 Tue. Ashtami: 08:01 to 05:45 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 08:01 on Mon 13 Aug to 05:45 on Tue 14 Aug, so only Monday night’s nishitha (00:58 Tue–01:36 Tue) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.
The rule

- Smarta
- the night whose nishitha Ashtami holds; when it touches both or neither, the later (Dharmasindhu).
- Vaishnava
- a Ashtami that Saptami does not pierce, read at sunrise: Tithika’s convention.
