Full panchang for Tue 5 Sep in SevanJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Tue 5 Sep in Sevan?
Janmashtami is on Tue 5 Sep: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 04:48 Tue.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 00:36 Wed–01:21 Wed. Ashtami: 04:48 to 02:37 Wed.
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 04:48 on Tue 5 Sep to 02:37 on Wed 6 Sep, so only Tuesday night’s nishitha (00:36 Wed–01:21 Wed) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.

- Vaishnava
- a Ashtami that Saptami does not pierce, read at sunrise: Tithika’s convention.
