Why is Bhai Dooj on Tue 10 Nov in Mindelo?
Bhai Dooj is on Tue 10 Nov: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 13:32–15:49. Dwitiya: 07:30 to 09:23 Wed.
Dwitiya ended at 09:23; aparahna is Tritiya.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−1). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The tilak is applied in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Dwitiya runs from 07:30 on Tue 10 Nov to 09:23 on Wed 11 Nov, so only Tuesday’s aparahna (13:32–15:49) falls within it. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
