Full panchang for Fri 9 Sep in MapletonPitru Paksha begins Shraddha muhurat: what time?
Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Fri 9 Sep in Mapleton?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Fri 9 Sep: Pratipada touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Purnima; Pratipada begins at 20:20.
Pratipada holds aparahna only until 16:45; then Dwitiya. Pratipada: 20:20 Thu to 16:45.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−6). 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 20:20 on Thu 8 Sep to 16:45 on Fri 9 Sep, so it touches only Friday’s aparahna (14:39–17:11). No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
