Full panchang for Wed 27 Aug in MyjavaJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Wed 27 Aug in Myjava?
Janmashtami is on Wed 27 Aug: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 03:57 Wed. Ashtami: 03:57 Wed to 04:09 Thu.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 00:30 Thu–01:11 Thu. Ashtami: 03:57 to 04:09 Thu.
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 03:57 on Wed 27 Aug to 04:09 on Thu 28 Aug, so only Wednesday night’s nishitha (00:30 Thu–01:11 Thu) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.
The rule

- 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.
