Why is Maha Shivratri on Thu 10 Mar in Sevan?

Maha Shivratri is on Thu 10 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.

Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 07:13 Thu.

Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:45–00:34 Fri. Chaturdashi: 07:13 to 08:27 Fri.

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 07:13 on Thu 10 Mar to 08:27 on Fri 11 Mar, so only Thursday night’s nishitha (23:45–00:34 Fri) 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.
