Full panchang for Fri 13 Feb in SevanMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Fri 13 Feb in Sevan?
Maha Shivratri is on Fri 13 Feb: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:47–00:40 Sat. Chaturdashi: 16:51 to 14:45 Sat.
Chaturdashi ended at 14:45; 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 16:51 on Fri 13 Feb to 14:45 on Sat 14 Feb, so only Friday night’s nishitha (23:47–00:40 Sat) falls within it.
