Why is Maha Shivratri on Tue 20 Feb in Sevan?

Maha Shivratri is on Tue 20 Feb: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.

Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 04:26 Tue.

Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:45–00:37 Wed. Chaturdashi: 04:26 to 00:48 Wed.

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 04:26 on Tue 20 Feb to 00:48 on Wed 21 Feb, so only Tuesday night’s nishitha (23:45–00:37 Wed) falls within it.

The rule

Phalguna Krishna Chaturdashi (purnimanta) · Magha Krishna Chaturdashi (amanta)

Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta.

Smarta: the night whose nishitha Chaturdashi holds; when it touches both or neither, the later (Nirnayasindhu).
Vaishnava: the Smarta day.
