Full panchang for Tue 12 Mar in SevanMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Tue 12 Mar in Sevan?
By the Nirnayasindhu, Maha Shivratri is on Tue 12 Mar: Chaturdashi touches nishitha on both nights and it takes the later.
Trayodashi until 01:07 Tue, inside nishitha; then Chaturdashi. Chaturdashi: 01:07 Tue to 03:33 Wed.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 00:44 Wed–01:33 Wed. Chaturdashi: 01:07 to 03:33 Wed.
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 01:07 on Tue 12 Mar to 03:33 on Wed 13 Mar, touching nishitha on both nights. When it does, the Nirnayasindhu takes the later day: Tue 12 Mar.
