Why is Dhanteras on Fri 28 Oct in Bothell?
Dhanteras is on Fri 28 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 16:57–19:43. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 17:36 to 19:16.
Pradosha is Dwadashi; Trayodashi begins at 21:55. Trayodashi: 21:55 to 19:35 Fri.
Trayodashi holds pradosha only until 19:35; then Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 21:55 Thu to 19:35.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−8). 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 21:55 on Thu 27 Oct to 19:35 on Fri 28 Oct, so it touches only Friday’s pradosha (16:57–19:43). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
