Why is Dhanteras on Thu 23 Oct in Midleton?
Dhanteras is on Thu 23 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 18:23–21:08. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 19:09 to 20:45.
Pradosha is Dwadashi; Trayodashi begins at 22:52. Trayodashi: 22:52 to 20:17 Thu.
Trayodashi holds pradosha only until 20:17; then Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 22:52 Wed to 20:17.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). 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 22:52 on Wed 22 Oct to 20:17 on Thu 23 Oct, so it touches only Thursday’s pradosha (18:23–21:08). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
