Rama Navami madhyahna muhurat: what time?
Why is Rama Navami on Sat 20 Apr in Codcod?
By the Dharmasindhu, Rama Navami is on Sat 20 Apr: Navami touches madhyahna on both days and it takes the later.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 10:32–13:00. Navami: 09:24 to 10:45 Sat.
Navami holds madhyahna only until 10:45; then Dashami. Navami: 09:24 Fri to 10:45.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). Band: the tithi. Box: Madhyahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Navami touches madhyahna on both days. When it does, the Dharmasindhu takes the later day: Sat 20 Apr, where it holds madhyahna until 10:45. Every reading takes that day.
The rule
Chaitra Shukla Navami
Rama’s birth is celebrated at madhyahna, the middle fifth of the day.
- Smarta
- the day whose madhyahna Navami holds; when it touches both or neither, the later (Dharmasindhu).
- Vaishnava
- a Navami that Ashtami does not pierce, read at sunrise: Tithika’s convention.
