Why is Diwali on Sat 13 Nov in Davinópolis?
Diwali · Lakshmi Puja is on Sat 13 Nov: Amavasya touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Lakshmi Puja muhurat: pradosha, 18:04–20:24. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 18:10 to 20:19.
Pradosha is Chaturdashi; Amavasya begins at 21:51. Amavasya: 21:51 to 18:34 Sat.
Amavasya holds pradosha only until 18:34; then Pratipada. Amavasya: 21:51 Fri to 18:34.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). 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 21:51 on Fri 12 Nov to 18:34 on Sat 13 Nov, so it touches only Saturday’s pradosha (18:04–20:24). Every reading takes that day.
