Full panchang for Sat 1 Mar in CodcodMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Sat 1 Mar in Codcod?
Maha Shivratri is on Sat 1 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 09:06 Sat.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:35–00:23 Sun. Chaturdashi: 09:06 to 09:37 Sun.
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 09:06 on Sat 1 Mar to 09:37 on Sun 2 Mar, so only Saturday night’s nishitha (23:35–00:23 Sun) falls within it.
