Full panchang for Sun 17 Feb in IpameriMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Sun 17 Feb in Ipameri?
Maha Shivratri is on Sun 17 Feb: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 04:33 Sun.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:57–00:43 Mon. Chaturdashi: 04:33 to 02:21 Mon.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 04:33 on Sun 17 Feb to 02:21 on Mon 18 Feb, so only Sunday night’s nishitha (23:57–00:43 Mon) falls within it.
