Why is Durga Ashtami on Mon 9 Oct in Orting?

Durga Ashtami is on Mon 9 Oct: Ashtami holds sunrise that day.

Sunrise at 07:16 is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 15:41.

Ashtami at sunrise, 07:18. Ashtami: 15:41 Sun to 13:32.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC−7). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

Durga Ashtami follows the tithi at sunrise. Ashtami runs from 15:41 on Sun 8 Oct to 13:32 on Mon 9 Oct, so it holds sunrise only on Mon 9 Oct, at 07:18. No text giving Durga Ashtami’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.

The rule

Ashwina Shukla Ashtami

Durga Ashtami follows the tithi at sunrise.

Smarta
the day Ashtami holds at sunrise: Tithika’s convention, since no text gives the time.
Vaishnava
the Smarta day.
