Full panchang for Fri 28 Feb in SevanMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Fri 28 Feb in Sevan?
Maha Shivratri is on Fri 28 Feb: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:44–00:35 Sat. Chaturdashi: 18:49 to 16:44 Sat.
Chaturdashi ended at 16:44; nishitha is Amavasya.
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 18:49 on Fri 28 Feb to 16:44 on Sat 1 Mar, so only Friday night’s nishitha (23:44–00:35 Sat) falls within it.
