Full panchang for Wed 28 Feb in SevanMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Wed 28 Feb in Sevan?
Maha Shivratri is on Wed 28 Feb: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 00:46 Thu–01:37 Thu. Chaturdashi: 14:59 to 13:32 Thu.
Chaturdashi ended at 13:32; nishitha is Amavasya.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 14:59 on Wed 28 Feb to 13:32 on Thu 29 Feb, so only Wednesday night’s nishitha (00:46 Thu–01:37 Thu) falls within it.
