Why is Diwali on Fri 20 Oct in Pāthardi?
Diwali · Lakshmi Puja is on Fri 20 Oct: Amavasya touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Lakshmi Puja muhurat: pradosha, 18:03–20:31. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 19:31 to 20:31.
Pradosha is Chaturdashi; Amavasya begins at 22:45. Amavasya: 22:45 to 19:09 Fri.
Amavasya holds pradosha only until 19:09; then Pratipada. Amavasya: 22:45 Thu to 19:09.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Pradosha. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Lakshmi Puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Amavasya runs from 22:45 on Thu 19 Oct to 19:09 on Fri 20 Oct, so it touches only Friday’s pradosha (18:03–20:31). Every reading takes that day.
