Why is Dhanteras on Wed 2 Nov in Mapleton?
Dhanteras is on Wed 2 Nov: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 17:23–20:05. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 17:58 to 19:46.
Pradosha is Dwadashi; Trayodashi begins at 21:49. Trayodashi: 21:49 to 19:23 Wed.
Trayodashi holds pradosha only until 19:23; then Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 21:49 Tue to 19:23.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−7). 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 21:49 on Tue 1 Nov to 19:23 on Wed 2 Nov, so it touches only Wednesday’s pradosha (17:23–20:05). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
