Full panchang for Sat 24 Feb in SevanMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Sat 24 Feb in Sevan?
By the Nirnayasindhu, Maha Shivratri is on Sat 24 Feb: Chaturdashi touches nishitha on both nights and it takes the later.
Trayodashi until 01:31 Sat, inside nishitha; then Chaturdashi. Chaturdashi: 01:31 Sat to 01:33 Sun.
Chaturdashi holds nishitha only until 01:33 Sun; then Amavasya. Chaturdashi: 01:31 to 01:33 Sun.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Chaturdashi touches nishitha on both nights. When it does, the Nirnayasindhu takes the later day: Sat 24 Feb, where it holds nishitha until 01:33 Sun.
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.
