Full panchang for Wed 18 Feb in CodcodMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Wed 18 Feb in Codcod?
Maha Shivratri is on Wed 18 Feb: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 04:50 Wed.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:36–00:25 Thu. Chaturdashi: 04:50 to 05:28 Thu.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 04:50 on Wed 18 Feb to 05:28 on Thu 19 Feb, so only Wednesday night’s nishitha (23:36–00:25 Thu) falls within it.
