Why is Dhanteras on Sun 26 Oct in Temascal?
Dhanteras is on Sun 26 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 17:19–19:49. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 18:25 to 19:49.
Dwadashi until 17:48, inside pradosha; then Trayodashi. Trayodashi: 17:48 to 14:32 Mon.
Trayodashi ended at 14:32; pradosha is Chaturdashi.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−7). 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 17:48 on Sun 26 Oct to 14:32 on Mon 27 Oct, so it touches only Sunday’s pradosha (17:19–19:49). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
