Why is Dhanteras on Mon 19 Oct in Mapleton?
Dhanteras is on Mon 19 Oct: Trayodashi touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Dhanteras puja muhurat: pradosha, 18:40–21:16. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 19:53 to 21:16.
Pradosha is Dwadashi; Trayodashi begins at 23:33. Trayodashi: 23:33 to 20:21 Mon.
Trayodashi holds pradosha only until 20:21; then Chaturdashi. Trayodashi: 23:33 Sun to 20:21.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−7). 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 23:33 on Sun 18 Oct to 20:21 on Mon 19 Oct, so it touches only Monday’s pradosha (18:40–21:16). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
