Why is Dhanteras on Mon 16 Oct in Devonport?
Dhanteras is on Mon 16 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Pradosha is Dwadashi; Trayodashi begins at 00:47 Mon.
Trayodashi holds pradosha only until 21:15; then Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 00:47 to 21:15.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+11). 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 00:47 on Mon 16 Oct to 21:15 on Mon 16 Oct, so it touches only Monday’s pradosha (19:36–21:45). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
