Why is Durga Ashtami on Mon 21 Oct in Sofia?

Durga Ashtami is on Mon 21 Oct: Ashtami holds sunrise that day.

Sunrise at 06:45 is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 10:42.

Ashtami at sunrise, 06:46. Ashtami: 10:42 Sun to 09:53.

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 10:42 on Sun 20 Oct to 09:53 on Mon 21 Oct, so it holds sunrise only on Mon 21 Oct, at 06:46. 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.
