Why is Janmashtami on Sun 1 Sep or Mon 2 Sep in Myjava?
Smarta · Janmashtami is on Sun 1 Sep: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 00:28 Mon–01:11 Mon. Ashtami: 21:36 to 23:41 Mon.
Ashtami ended at 23:41; nishitha is Navami. Ashtami: 21:36 Sun to 23:41.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Ashtami runs from 21:36 on Sun 1 Sep to 23:41 on Mon 2 Sep, so only Sunday night’s nishitha (00:28 Mon–01:11 Mon) falls within it.
Vaishnavas keep Janmashtami on a tithi that Saptami does not pierce: Ashtami holds sunrise on Mon 2 Sep, at 06:07. Reading the Vaishnava rule by sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
