Full panchang for Sun 1 Mar in MyshkinMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Sun 1 Mar in Myshkin?
Maha Shivratri is on Sun 1 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 04:26 Sun.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:41–00:34 Mon. Chaturdashi: 04:26 to 00:55 Mon.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2:30). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 04:26 on Sun 1 Mar to 00:55 on Mon 2 Mar, so only Sunday night’s nishitha (23:41–00:34 Mon) falls within it.
