Why is Ahoi Ashtami on Wed 9 Oct in Pāthardi?
Ahoi Ashtami is on Wed 9 Oct: Ashtami holds all of pradosha that evening, and no other.
Ashtami holds all of pradosha, 18:11–20:37. Ashtami: 13:36 to 12:27 Thu.
Ashtami ended at 12:27; pradosha is Navami.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Pradosha. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Ahoi Ashtami’s puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Ashtami runs from 13:36 on Wed 9 Oct to 12:27 on Thu 10 Oct, so only Wednesday’s pradosha (18:11–20:37) falls within it. No text giving Ahoi Ashtami’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
