Why is Ahoi Ashtami on Sat 18 Oct in Pāthardi?
Ahoi Ashtami is on Sat 18 Oct: Ashtami holds all of pradosha that evening, and no other.
Pradosha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 05:19 Sat.
Ashtami holds all of pradosha, 18:04–20:32. Ashtami: 05:19 to 06:32 Sun.
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 05:19 on Sat 18 Oct to 06:32 on Sun 19 Oct, so only Saturday’s pradosha (18:04–20:32) falls within it. No text giving Ahoi Ashtami’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
