Full panchang for Tue 16 Sep in OleanPitru Paksha begins Shraddha muhurat: what time?
Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Tue 16 Sep in Olean?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Tue 16 Sep: Pratipada touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Purnima until 14:50, inside aparahna; then Pratipada. Pratipada: 14:50 to 11:05 Wed.
Pratipada ended at 11:05; aparahna is Dwitiya.
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 14:50 on Tue 16 Sep to 11:05 on Wed 17 Sep, so it touches only Tuesday’s aparahna (14:22–16:51). No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
