Why is Dhanteras on Wed 20 Oct in Sevan?
Dhanteras is on Wed 20 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 18:12–20:49. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 19:20 to 20:49.
Dwadashi until 19:19, inside pradosha; then Trayodashi. Trayodashi: 19:19 to 16:16 Thu.
Trayodashi ended at 16:16; pradosha is Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 19:19 Wed to 16:16.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). 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 19:19 on Wed 20 Oct to 16:16 on Thu 21 Oct, so it touches only Wednesday’s pradosha (18:12–20:49). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
