Why is Durga Ashtami on Tue 6 Oct in Maclear?

Durga Ashtami is on Tue 6 Oct: Ashtami holds sunrise that day.

Ashtami at sunrise, 05:38. Ashtami: 20:44 Mon to 22:37.

Ashtami ended at 22:37 Tue; sunrise at 05:37 is Navami.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

Durga Ashtami follows the tithi at sunrise. Ashtami runs from 20:44 on Mon 5 Oct to 22:37 on Tue 6 Oct, so it holds sunrise only on Tue 6 Oct, at 05:38. 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.
