Why is Dhanteras on Tue 13 Nov in Baoding?
Dhanteras is on Tue 13 Nov: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 17:06–19:52. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 17:10 to 18:59.
Pradosha is Dwadashi; Trayodashi begins at 21:28. Trayodashi: 21:28 to 18:56 Tue.
Trayodashi holds pradosha only until 18:56; then Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 21:28 Mon to 18:56.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). 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 21:28 on Mon 12 Nov to 18:56 on Tue 13 Nov, so it touches only Tuesday’s pradosha (17:06–19:52). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
