Why a lunar-calendar interval need not start at midnight
A civil date begins according to a clock convention. A lunar-calendar interval can be defined through a different relationship, so the two boundaries need not coincide.

A day label can describe a different interval
When a calendar uses a Sun-Moon relationship to define a tithi, its boundary is not simply the next midnight. An observance may then apply another rule about the relevant local day. Ask what the calendar is displaying: an interval, a phase instant or an observance date. These labels should not be swapped casually.
Exact-looking times still need context
The location, time standard and rule need to be clear. Antaryami should not supply a generic timestamp and call it the right answer for every visitor. An honest explanation can say that a public guide is not a live personal calendar calculation.
A practical pause
- Identify the interval or event being labelled.
- Read the local rule used for observance.
- Do not equate every lunar label with midnight-to-midnight civil time.
Choose the step that fits your actual situation. You do not have to follow every suggestion, buy a product or make a major decision to learn something from the question. A useful explanation leaves you more informed and free to decide, rather than feeling that you must act immediately.
Keep the context visible
A global audience does not share one time zone, hemisphere or observance rule. A date can be expressed locally in more than one way, and cultural practice is not reducible to a clock conversion. Use local organisers and appropriate calendar sources for arrangements. Antaryami can introduce the distinctions without claiming that every tradition is the same or that one timetable governs everyone.
