Why is Dhanteras on Thu 26 Oct in Pāthardi?
Dhanteras is on Thu 26 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 17:50–20:20. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 18:57 to 20:20.
Pradosha is Dwadashi; Trayodashi begins at 23:13.
Trayodashi holds pradosha only until 19:54; then Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 23:13 Wed to 19:54.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). 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 23:13 on Wed 25 Oct to 19:54 on Thu 26 Oct, so it touches only Thursday’s pradosha (17:50–20:20). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
