Why is Dhanteras on Wed 25 Oct in Progress?
Dhanteras is on Wed 25 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 18:11–20:57. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 18:56 to 20:35.
Pradosha is Dwadashi; Trayodashi begins at 21:26. Trayodashi: 21:26 to 19:56 Wed.
Trayodashi holds pradosha only until 19:56; then Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 21:26 Tue to 19:56.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+10). 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 21:26 on Tue 24 Oct to 19:56 on Wed 25 Oct, so it touches only Wednesday’s pradosha (18:11–20:57). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
