Full panchang for Thu 2 Mar in SevanMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Thu 2 Mar in Sevan?
Maha Shivratri is on Thu 2 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 11:19 Thu.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:44–00:35 Fri. Chaturdashi: 11:19 to 08:59 Fri.
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 11:19 on Thu 2 Mar to 08:59 on Fri 3 Mar, so only Thursday night’s nishitha (23:44–00:35 Fri) falls within it.
