Full panchang for Wed 17 Sep in OleanPitru Paksha begins Shraddha muhurat: what time?
Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Wed 17 Sep in Olean?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Wed 17 Sep: Pratipada touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Purnima until 13:23, inside aparahna; then Pratipada. Pratipada: 13:23 to 12:17 Thu.
Pratipada ended at 12:17; aparahna is Dwitiya. Pratipada: 13:23 Wed to 12:17.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−5). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The first shraddha of Pitru Paksha is done in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Pratipada runs from 13:23 on Wed 17 Sep to 12:17 on Thu 18 Sep, so it touches only Wednesday’s aparahna (13:22–15:51). No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
