Full panchang for Wed 2 Mar in MyjavaMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Wed 2 Mar in Myjava?
Maha Shivratri is on Wed 2 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:35–00:27 Thu. Chaturdashi: 17:16 to 19:25 Thu.
Chaturdashi ended at 19:25; nishitha is Amavasya.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 17:16 on Wed 2 Mar to 19:25 on Thu 3 Mar, so only Wednesday night’s nishitha (23:35–00:27 Thu) falls within it.
