Why is Chhath on Wed 25 Oct in Devon?
Chhath · Sandhya Arghya is on Wed 25 Oct: Shashthi holds sunset that evening.
Sunset at 18:17 is Panchami; Shashthi begins at 22:08.
Shashthi at sunset, 18:15. Shashthi: 22:08 Tue to 00:45 Thu.
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 22:08 on Tue 24 Oct to 00:45 on Thu 26 Oct, so it holds sunset only on Wed 25 Oct, at 18:15. No text giving Chhath · Sandhya Arghya’s time was found; sunset is Tithika’s convention.
