Why is Dhanteras on Wed 9 Nov in Davinópolis?
Dhanteras is on Wed 9 Nov: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 19:03–21:23. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 19:26 to 21:23.
Dwadashi until 21:02, inside pradosha; then Trayodashi. Trayodashi: 21:02 to 18:02 Thu.
Trayodashi ended at 18:02; pradosha is Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 21:02 Wed to 18:02.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−2). 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 21:02 on Wed 9 Nov to 18:02 on Thu 10 Nov, so it touches only Wednesday’s pradosha (19:03–21:23). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
