Full panchang for Tue 12 Mar in CodcodMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Tue 12 Mar in Codcod?
Maha Shivratri is on Tue 12 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 05:07 Tue.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:32–00:20 Wed. Chaturdashi: 05:07 to 07:33 Wed.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 05:07 on Tue 12 Mar to 07:33 on Wed 13 Mar, so only Tuesday night’s nishitha (23:32–00:20 Wed) falls within it.
