Full panchang for Thu 19 Sep in PolatlıPitru Paksha begins Shraddha muhurat: what time?
Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Thu 19 Sep in Polatlı?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Thu 19 Sep: Pratipada touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Purnima until 14:12, inside aparahna; then Pratipada. Pratipada: 14:12 to 12:45 Fri.
Pratipada ended at 12:45; aparahna is Dwitiya. Pratipada: 14:12 Thu to 12:45.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). 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 14:12 on Thu 19 Sep to 12:45 on Fri 20 Sep, so it touches only Thursday’s aparahna (13:58–16:26). No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
