Mahashivratri is the most significant and darkest night of the year and is known as a night of awakening. Planetary energy is very high on that night. People do “Jagran” full night. If you sleep on Mahashivratri night that means you are blocking that high energy. So, you have to sit straight, and your spin must be stiff on that night. And the level of your body fluid is also increasing on that night, such as the Moon increasing the level of water level in the ocean by their gravitational force on the new moon or full moon day. Whatever little quality you explore on that night, the energy of that night increases your quality, If you meditate on that night you will become more meditative.
