Full panchang for Sat 6 Mar in OleanMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Sat 6 Mar in Olean?
Maha Shivratri is on Sat 6 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 01:34 Sat. Chaturdashi: 01:34 Sat to 03:16 Sun.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:59–00:49 Sun. Chaturdashi: 01:34 to 03:16 Sun.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−5). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 01:34 on Sat 6 Mar to 03:16 on Sun 7 Mar, so only Saturday night’s nishitha (23:59–00:49 Sun) falls within it.
