Full panchang for Sat 6 Mar in ŞefaatlıMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Sat 6 Mar in Şefaatlı?
Maha Shivratri is on Sat 6 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 09:34 Sat.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 00:26 Sun–01:16 Sun. Chaturdashi: 09:34 to 11:16 Sun.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 09:34 on Sat 6 Mar to 11:16 on Sun 7 Mar, so only Saturday night’s nishitha (00:26 Sun–01:16 Sun) falls within it.
