Why is Maha Shivratri on Mon 1 Mar in Sevan?

Maha Shivratri is on Mon 1 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.

Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 11:10 Mon.

Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 00:46 Tue–01:37 Tue. Chaturdashi: 11:10 to 12:47 Tue.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.

Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 11:10 on Mon 1 Mar to 12:47 on Tue 2 Mar, so only Monday night’s nishitha (00:46 Tue–01:37 Tue) 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.
