Why is Dhanteras on Wed 3 Nov in Pāthardi?
Dhanteras is on Wed 3 Nov: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 17:54–20:26. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 18:37 to 20:26.
Dwadashi until 18:59, inside pradosha; then Trayodashi. Trayodashi: 18:59 to 15:57 Thu.
Trayodashi ended at 15:57; pradosha is Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 18:59 Wed to 15:57.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). 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 18:59 on Wed 3 Nov to 15:57 on Thu 4 Nov, so it touches only Wednesday’s pradosha (17:54–20:26). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
