Full panchang for Sat 2 Mar in DavinópolisMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Sat 2 Mar in Davinópolis?
Maha Shivratri is on Sat 2 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 03:53 Sat.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:58–00:45 Sun. Chaturdashi: 03:53 to 03:31 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 03:53 on Sat 2 Mar to 03:31 on Sun 3 Mar, so only Saturday night’s nishitha (23:58–00:45 Sun) falls within it.
