Why is Dhanteras on Fri 25 Oct in Pāthardi?
Dhanteras is on Fri 25 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 17:59–20:29. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 19:14 to 20:29.
Dwadashi until 19:08, inside pradosha; then Trayodashi. Trayodashi: 19:08 to 15:46 Sat.
Trayodashi ended at 15:46; pradosha is Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 19:08 Fri to 15:46.
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 19:08 on Fri 25 Oct to 15:46 on Sat 26 Oct, so it touches only Friday’s pradosha (17:59–20:29). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
