Why is Chhath on Thu 7 Nov in Pomoca?
Chhath · Sandhya Arghya is on Thu 7 Nov: Shashthi touches sunset on neither evening, and the earlier day is taken.
Sunset at 17:36 is Panchami; Shashthi begins at 17:42. Shashthi: 17:42 to 15:11 Fri.
Shashthi ended at 15:11; sunset at 17:36 is Saptami. Shashthi: 17:42 Thu to 15:11.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−6). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunset. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The evening arghya is offered at sunset. Shashthi runs from 17:42 on Thu 7 Nov to 15:11 on Fri 8 Nov, between the two evenings’ sunset, touching neither. The Nirnayasindhu then takes the earlier day: Thu 7 Nov. No text giving Chhath · Sandhya Arghya’s time was found; sunset is Tithika’s convention.
