Why is Dhanteras on Fri 23 Oct in Mapleton?
Dhanteras is on Fri 23 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 18:34–21:13. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 19:34 to 21:13.
Pradosha is Dwadashi; Trayodashi begins at 22:55. Trayodashi: 22:55 to 19:57 Fri.
Trayodashi holds pradosha only until 19:57; then Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 22:55 Thu to 19:57.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−6). 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 22:55 on Thu 22 Oct to 19:57 on Fri 23 Oct, so it touches only Friday’s pradosha (18:34–21:13). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
