Why is Dhanteras on Mon 16 Oct in Baoding?
Dhanteras is on Mon 16 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 17:39–20:13. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 18:59 to 20:13.
Dwadashi until 18:08, inside pradosha; then Trayodashi. Trayodashi: 18:08 to 17:20 Tue.
Trayodashi ended at 17:20; pradosha is Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 18:08 Mon to 17:20.
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 18:08 on Mon 16 Oct to 17:20 on Tue 17 Oct, so it touches only Monday’s pradosha (17:39–20:13). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
