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 19:53 on Sun 21 Oct to 16:22 on Mon 22 Oct, so it touches only Sunday’s pradosha (18:01–20:22). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
