Chhath · Sandhya Arghya is on Sat 9 Nov: Shashthi holds sunset that evening.
Shashthi at sunset, 17:40. Shashthi: 09:21 to 08:58 Sun.
Shashthi ended at 08:58; sunset at 17:40 is Saptami.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunset. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The evening arghya is offered at sunset. Shashthi runs from 09:21 on Sat 9 Nov to 08:58 on Sun 10 Nov, so it holds sunset only on Sat 9 Nov, at 17:40. No text giving Chhath · Sandhya Arghya’s time was found; sunset is Tithika’s convention.
