Full panchang for Fri 1 Mar in SevanMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Fri 1 Mar in Sevan?
Maha Shivratri is on Fri 1 Mar: Chaturdashi touches nishitha that night, and no other.
Trayodashi until 23:56, inside nishitha; then Chaturdashi. Chaturdashi: 23:56 to 22:46 Sat.
Chaturdashi ended at 22:46; nishitha is Amavasya. Chaturdashi: 23:56 Fri to 22:46.
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 23:56 on Fri 1 Mar to 22:46 on Sat 2 Mar, so it touches only Friday night’s nishitha (23:46–00:37 Sat).
