Why is Ahoi Ashtami on Tue 3 Nov in Pāthardi?
Ahoi Ashtami is on Tue 3 Nov: Ashtami holds all of pradosha that evening, and no other.
Pradosha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 05:20 Tue.
Ashtami holds all of pradosha, 17:54–20:26. Ashtami: 05:20 to 06:38 Wed.
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 05:20 on Tue 3 Nov to 06:38 on Wed 4 Nov, so only Tuesday’s pradosha (17:54–20:26) falls within it. No text giving Ahoi Ashtami’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
