Full panchang for Tue 9 Sep in AtliacaPitru Paksha begins Shraddha muhurat: what time?
Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Tue 9 Sep in Atliaca?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Tue 9 Sep: Pratipada touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Purnima; Pratipada begins at 20:38.
Pratipada holds aparahna only until 17:10; then Dwitiya. Pratipada: 20:38 Mon to 17:10.
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 20:38 on Mon 8 Sep to 17:10 on Tue 9 Sep, so it touches only Tuesday’s aparahna (14:48–17:16). No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
