Full panchang for Tue 18 Aug in IpameriJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Tue 18 Aug in Ipameri?
Janmashtami is on Tue 18 Aug: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 03:30 Tue.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 23:51–00:41 Wed. Ashtami: 03:30 to 02:16 Wed.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Ashtami runs from 03:30 on Tue 18 Aug to 02:16 on Wed 19 Aug, so only Tuesday night’s nishitha (23:51–00:41 Wed) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.
The rule

- 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.
