Why is Dhanteras on Mon 16 Oct in Baoding?
Dhanteras is on Mon 16 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 17:37–20:12. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 18:59 to 20:12.
Pradosha is Dwadashi; Trayodashi begins at 21:47. Trayodashi: 21:47 to 18:15 Mon.
Trayodashi holds pradosha only until 18:15; then Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 21:47 Sun to 18:15.
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 21:47 on Sun 15 Oct to 18:15 on Mon 16 Oct, so it touches only Monday’s pradosha (17:37–20:12). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
