Why is Maha Shivratri on Sun 14 Feb in Pāthardi?

Maha Shivratri is on Sun 14 Feb: Chaturdashi touches nishitha that night, and no other.

Trayodashi until 00:52 Mon, inside nishitha; then Chaturdashi. Chaturdashi: 00:52 Mon to 00:06 Tue.

Chaturdashi ended at 00:06 Tue; nishitha is Amavasya. Chaturdashi: 00:52 to 00:06 Tue.

One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.

Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 00:52 on Mon 15 Feb to 00:06 on Tue 16 Feb, so it touches only Sunday night’s nishitha (00:18 Mon–01:08 Mon).

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.
