Why is Maha Shivratri on Mon 4 Mar in Codcod?

Maha Shivratri is on Mon 4 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.

Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:34–00:22 Tue. Chaturdashi: 18:58 to 21:37 Tue.

Chaturdashi ended at 21:37; nishitha is Amavasya. Chaturdashi: 18:58 Mon to 21:37.

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 18:58 on Mon 4 Mar to 21:37 on Tue 5 Mar, so only Monday night’s nishitha (23:34–00:22 Tue) 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.
