Why is Janmashtami on Mon 7 Sep or Tue 8 Sep in Codcod?
Smarta · Janmashtami is on Mon 7 Sep: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 23:21–00:08 Tue. Ashtami: 17:03 to 17:24 Tue.
Ashtami ended at 17:24; nishitha is Navami.
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 17:03 on Mon 7 Sep to 17:24 on Tue 8 Sep, so only Monday night’s nishitha (23:21–00:08 Tue) falls within it.
Vaishnavas keep Janmashtami on a tithi that Saptami does not pierce: Ashtami holds sunrise on Tue 8 Sep, at 05:37. Reading the Vaishnava rule by sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
