Why is Chhath on Mon 24 Oct in Mapleton?
Chhath · Sandhya Arghya is on Mon 24 Oct: Shashthi touches sunset on neither evening, and the earlier day is taken.
Sunset at 17:33 is Panchami; Shashthi begins at 18:11. Shashthi: 18:11 to 15:49 Tue.
Shashthi ended at 15:49; sunset at 17:32 is Saptami. Shashthi: 18:11 Mon to 15:49.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−7). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunset. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The evening arghya is offered at sunset. Shashthi runs from 18:11 on Mon 24 Oct to 15:49 on Tue 25 Oct, between the two evenings’ sunset, touching neither. The Nirnayasindhu then takes the earlier day: Mon 24 Oct. No text giving Chhath · Sandhya Arghya’s time was found; sunset is Tithika’s convention.
