When is Rama Navami 2017 in Codcod?
Rama Navami madhyahna muhurat: what time?
Why is Rama Navami on Wed 5 Apr in Codcod?
Rama Navami is on Wed 5 Apr: Navami touches madhyahna that day, and no other.
Madhyahna is Ashtami; Navami begins at 13:50. Navami: 13:50 to 12:34 Wed.
Navami holds madhyahna only until 12:34; then Dashami. Navami: 13:50 Tue to 12:34.
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 13:50 on Tue 4 Apr to 12:34 on Wed 5 Apr, so it touches only Wednesday’s madhyahna (10:36–13:03). 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.
