Why is Dhanteras on Thu 5 Nov in Davinópolis?
Dhanteras is on Thu 5 Nov: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 18:02–20:23. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 18:41 to 20:23.
Dwadashi until 18:33, inside pradosha; then Trayodashi. Trayodashi: 18:33 to 17:06 Fri.
Trayodashi ended at 17:06; pradosha is Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 18:33 Thu to 17:06.
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 18:33 on Thu 5 Nov to 17:06 on Fri 6 Nov, so it touches only Thursday’s pradosha (18:02–20:23). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
