Full panchang for Tue 16 Aug in CodcodJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Tue 16 Aug in Codcod?
Janmashtami is on Tue 16 Aug: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 06:52 Tue.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 23:28–00:14 Wed. Ashtami: 06:52 to 05:07 Wed.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Ashtami runs from 06:52 on Tue 16 Aug to 05:07 on Wed 17 Aug, so only Tuesday night’s nishitha (23:28–00:14 Wed) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.
The rule
Bhadrapada Krishna Ashtami (purnimanta) · Shravana Krishna Ashtami (amanta)

- 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.
