Full panchang for Fri 2 Mar in IpameriMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Fri 2 Mar in Ipameri?
Maha Shivratri is on Fri 2 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 00:01 Sat–00:48 Sat. Chaturdashi: 22:03 to 21:54 Sat.
Chaturdashi ended at 21:54; nishitha is Amavasya. Chaturdashi: 22:03 Fri to 21:54.
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 22:03 on Fri 2 Mar to 21:54 on Sat 3 Mar, so only Friday night’s nishitha (00:01 Sat–00:48 Sat) falls within it.
