Why is Dhanteras on Sat 30 Oct in Baoding?
Dhanteras is on Sat 30 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 17:20–20:01. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 18:03 to 19:52.
Pradosha is Dwadashi; Trayodashi begins at 22:23. Trayodashi: 22:23 to 19:27 Sat.
Trayodashi holds pradosha only until 19:27; then Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 22:23 Fri to 19:27.
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 22:23 on Fri 29 Oct to 19:27 on Sat 30 Oct, so it touches only Saturday’s pradosha (17:20–20:01). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
