Full panchang for Tue 12 Feb in IpameriMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Tue 12 Feb in Ipameri?
Maha Shivratri is on Tue 12 Feb: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 01:04 Wed–01:49 Wed. Chaturdashi: 13:05 to 14:34 Wed.
Chaturdashi ended at 14:34; nishitha is Amavasya.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−2). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 13:05 on Tue 12 Feb to 14:34 on Wed 13 Feb, so only Tuesday night’s nishitha (01:04 Wed–01:49 Wed) falls within it.
