Masik Shivaratri in Hong Kong: questions
+ How many Masik Shivaratri days are there in 2030 in Hong Kong?
13, computed for Hong Kong's coordinates and the Asia/Hong Kong time zone. The first falls on Wed, Jan 2 and the last on Mon, Dec 23.
+ Are Hong Kong Masik Shivaratri dates the same as in India?
Not always. A tithi starts at the same instant everywhere, but the local midnight that decides the day happens at a different moment in Hong Kong. In 2030, 11 of 13 dates match the Indian (Ujjain) date, 0 fall a day earlier and 2 a day later.
+ How is the date decided?
This calendar uses the local day whose following midnight (computed as the midpoint between sunset and the next sunrise) falls inside the Krishna Chaturdashi tithi. No entry this year needed a flag. Local temples may follow a particular sampradaya's rule, so check with them for ritual purposes.
+ How accurate are these times?
Times come from truncated astronomical series and should fall within a few minutes of a full ephemeris. Near a boundary a published panchanga may assign a different day. They are for planning practice, not for precise ritual muhurta.
