Why is Ahoi Ashtami on Sun 1 Nov in Diffa?

Ahoi Ashtami is on Sun 1 Nov: Ashtami holds all of pradosha that evening, and no other.

Ashtami holds all of pradosha, 17:42–20:10. Ashtami: 10:22 to 08:41 Mon.

Ashtami ended at 08:41; pradosha is Navami.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). 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 10:22 on Sun 1 Nov to 08:41 on Mon 2 Nov, so only Sunday’s pradosha (17:42–20:10) falls within it. No text giving Ahoi Ashtami’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.

The rule

Kartika Krishna Ashtami (purnimanta) · Ashwina Krishna Ashtami (amanta)

Ahoi Ashtami’s puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset.

Smarta: the evening whose pradosha Ashtami holds: Tithika’s convention, since no text gives the time.
Vaishnava: the Smarta day.
