While Shivratri is something that arrives every lunar-solar month on the 13th\/14th day, however, <strong>Maha Shivratri<\/strong>, as a festival, is observed only once a year during late winter i.e. <strong>Phalguna<\/strong>, before the arrival of Summer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Hinduism, Maha Shivaratri means the <strong><em>&#8220;Great Night of Shiva&#8221; <\/em><\/strong>and is a night for Shiva to enjoy, dance and adore his existence just like we all must. However, before moving any further with the blog, let&#8217;s highlight the first things first.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Maha_Shivratri_2021_Puja_Time\"><\/span><strong>Maha Shivratri 2021 Puja Time<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maha <strong>Shivratri 2021 Chaturdashi Tithi timings<\/strong> &#8211; The Chaturdashi Tithi begins at 2:39 PM on March 11 and ends at 3:02 PM on March 12, 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Shivratri 2021 Shubh Muhurat<\/strong> &#8211; For the unaware, Shivratri Puja takes place during Nishita Kaal or midnight. And the <strong>Nishita Kaal puja time for Maha Shivratri 2021<\/strong> is between 12:06 AM to 12:55 AM on March 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, a Shiva devotee may Perform Shiva Puja at certain Nishita Kaal or any\/all four Prahars as well, the timing for which in 2021 are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>First Prahar:\u00a0<\/strong>6:27 PM to 09:29 PM (March 11)<\/li><li><strong>Second Prahar:\u00a0<\/strong>9:29 PM (March 11) to 12:31 AM (March 12)<\/li><li><strong>Third Prahar:\u00a0<\/strong>12:31 AM to 3:32 AM (March 12)<\/li><li><strong>Fourth Prahar:\u00a0<\/strong>3:32 AM to 6:34 AM (March 12)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Worshipping_The_Darkest_Night_of_The_Month\"><\/span><strong>Worshipping The Darkest Night of The Month<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shivratri, which is the darkest night of the month also entwines with the celebration of the darkness (as it falls a day before the new moon). A lay-mind might wonder why one needs to celebrate darkness? But resisting darkness or even thinking of it as evil could be the most foolish thing to do as darkness has its own significance in the world. Darkness, like the light, doesn&#8217;t even need a source to justify its presence and that&#8217;s sheer power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1278\" src=\"https:\/\/astrotalk.com\/astrology-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/nasa-Q1p7bh3SHj8-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"Maha Shivratri - Darkest Night of the Month\" class=\"wp-image-129818\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scientifically too, only as much as 5 per cent of outer space is illuminated by what we call galaxies. The remaining 95 per cent is the vast emptiness. And this vastness, this unbounded emptiness, is what we refer to as Shiva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a nutshell, darkness is only the thing that remains in the world forever. So why not preach it? Why run away from it? It&#8217;s altogether the lap of the heavenly Lord and getting to know darkness is an opportunity for us to think beyond their limitedness.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Astrological_Significance_of_Maha_Shivratri\"><\/span><strong>Astrological Significance of Maha Shivratri<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/astrotalk.com\/astrology-blog\/astrological-effect-of-mahashivratri\/\"><strong>Maha Shivaratri<\/strong><\/a><strong>, <\/strong>apart from being significant to a layman, is particularly very significant for anyone who is on a spiritual path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is believed that on the occasion of Chaturdashi, the Moon gets debilitated i.e. weakens.

Hence, during Maha Shivaratri (celebrated a day before the new moon), the strength of the moon is empowered by Lord Shiva, which positively enriches your mindfulness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, Maha Shivratri is the day that denotes the period of Surya Deva reaching Uttarayana i.e the northward movement of the Earth. The shift followed by seasonal change and is considered a very auspicious time, as per our astrologers, to indulge in physical pleasure.
