Why is Diwali on Fri 24 Oct in Myshkin?
Diwali · Lakshmi Puja is on Fri 24 Oct: Amavasya touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Lakshmi Puja muhurat: pradosha, 17:59–20:52. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 18:31 to 19:56.
Chaturdashi until 20:13, inside pradosha; then Amavasya. Amavasya: 20:13 to 16:50 Sat.

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 20:13 on Fri 24 Oct to 16:50 on Sat 25 Oct, so it touches only Friday’s pradosha (17:59–20:52). Every reading takes that day.
