Why was you born at midnight?
According to Hindu belief, the main reason behind Lord Krishna's birth on the night of Ashtami Tithi is that he belongs to Chandravanshi dynasty. It is said that Lord Krishna chose night time to take incarnation because his ancestor is Chandra Dev and Mercury is the son of Moon.
So, I was born at night
Lord Krishna is the eighth son of Devaki and the eighth incarnation of Lord Vishnu. The most important reason for Lord Krishna's birth at night is that he is of lunar origin. Just as Lord Rama is a Suryavanshi, so he was born in the morning, similarly Lord Krishna is a Chandravanshi, so he was born at night. Ancestor Chandradev also wished that if Lord Vishnu takes birth in my clan as Krishna, then I can see him in person. It is mentioned in mythological texts that at the time of Krishna's incarnation, the entire environment from the earth to the space was blissful.
this was also a reason
Lord Krishna was born in prison. Lord Krishna also chose midnight to escape from Kansa's prison. So that his father could send him safely, so when Krishna was born, the prison doors were opened and the soldiers fell into deep sleep. Then his father Vasudev reached Gokul safely and went back to the prison.
