Full panchang for Sat 6 Mar in KhmelnytskyiMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Sat 6 Mar in Khmelnytskyi?
Maha Shivratri is on Sat 6 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 08:34 Sat.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:57–00:48 Sun. Chaturdashi: 08:34 to 10:16 Sun.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 08:34 on Sat 6 Mar to 10:16 on Sun 7 Mar, so only Saturday night’s nishitha (23:57–00:48 Sun) falls within it.
