Full panchang for Wed 28 Aug in MyjavaJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Wed 28 Aug in Myjava?
By the Dharmasindhu, Janmashtami is on Wed 28 Aug: Ashtami touches nishitha on both nights and it takes the later.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 00:30 Wed–01:11 Wed. Ashtami: 22:36 to 00:40 Thu.
Ashtami holds nishitha only until 00:40 Thu; then Navami. Ashtami: 22:36 Tue to 00:40 Thu.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Ashtami touches nishitha on both nights. When it does, the Dharmasindhu takes the later day: Wed 28 Aug, where it holds nishitha until 00:40 Thu. 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.
