Why is Dhanteras on Sat 5 Nov in Davinópolis?
Dhanteras is on Sat 5 Nov: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 18:29–20:49. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 19:04 to 20:49.
Pradosha is Dwadashi; Trayodashi begins at 21:58. Trayodashi: 21:58 to 18:56 Sat.
Trayodashi holds pradosha only until 18:56; then Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 21:58 Fri to 18:56.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Pradosha. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Dhanteras puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Trayodashi runs from 21:58 on Fri 4 Nov to 18:56 on Sat 5 Nov, so it touches only Saturday’s pradosha (18:29–20:49). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
