Why is Dhanteras on Mon 16 Oct in Watari?
Dhanteras is on Mon 16 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 16:57–19:31. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 18:20 to 19:31.
Pradosha is Dwadashi; Trayodashi begins at 22:47.
Trayodashi holds pradosha only until 19:15; then Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 22:47 Sun to 19:15.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+9). 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 22:47 on Sun 15 Oct to 19:15 on Mon 16 Oct, so it touches only Monday’s pradosha (16:57–19:31). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
