Rama Navami madhyahna muhurat: what time?
Why is Rama Navami on Mon 17 Apr in Codcod?
By the Dharmasindhu, Rama Navami is on Mon 17 Apr: Navami touches madhyahna on both days and it takes the later.
Ashtami until 11:04, inside madhyahna; then Navami. Navami: 11:04 to 13:05 Mon.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 10:32–13:01. Navami: 11:04 Sun to 13:05.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). Band: the tithi. Box: Madhyahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Rama’s birth is celebrated at madhyahna, the middle fifth of the day. Navami runs from 11:04 on Sun 16 Apr to 13:05 on Mon 17 Apr, touching madhyahna on both days. When it does, the Dharmasindhu takes the later day: Mon 17 Apr. Every reading takes that day.
