Full panchang for Tue 10 Aug in MyjavaJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Tue 10 Aug in Myjava?
Janmashtami is on Tue 10 Aug: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 04:23 Tue.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 00:36 Wed–01:13 Wed. Ashtami: 04:23 to 06:06 Wed.
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 04:23 on Tue 10 Aug to 06:06 on Wed 11 Aug, so only Tuesday night’s nishitha (00:36 Wed–01:13 Wed) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.
The rule

- 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.
