Why is Diwali on Tue 12 Nov in Sevan?
Diwali · Lakshmi Puja is on Tue 12 Nov: Amavasya touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Lakshmi Puja muhurat: pradosha, 17:45–20:33. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 17:51 to 19:39.
Pradosha is Chaturdashi; Amavasya begins at 22:04. Amavasya: 22:04 to 18:20 Tue.
Amavasya holds pradosha only until 18:20; then Pratipada. Amavasya: 22:04 Mon to 18:20.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). 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 22:04 on Mon 11 Nov to 18:20 on Tue 12 Nov, so it touches only Tuesday’s pradosha (17:45–20:33). Every reading takes that day.
