Full panchang for Fri 21 Aug in MyshkinJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Fri 21 Aug in Myshkin?
Janmashtami is on Fri 21 Aug: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 02:03 Fri. Ashtami: 02:03 Fri to 01:47 Sat.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 01:11 Sat–01:47 Sat. Ashtami: 02:03 to 01:47 Sat.
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 02:03 on Fri 21 Aug to 01:47 on Sat 22 Aug, so only Friday night’s nishitha (01:11 Sat–01:47 Sat) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.
The rule
Bhadrapada Krishna Ashtami (purnimanta) · Shravana Krishna Ashtami (amanta)
Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta.
- 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.
