Aparahna is Purnima; Pratipada begins at 21:45.
Pratipada holds all of aparahna, 14:29–17:05. Pratipada: 21:45 Tue to 20:06.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−4). 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 21:45 on Tue 4 Sep to 20:06 on Wed 5 Sep, so only Wednesday’s aparahna (14:29–17:05) falls within it. No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
