Why is Durga Ashtami on Thu 27 Sep in Diffa?

Durga Ashtami is on Thu 27 Sep: Ashtami holds sunrise that day.

Sunrise at 05:58 is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 13:55.

Ashtami at sunrise, 05:58. Ashtami: 13:55 Wed to 16:10.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

Durga Ashtami follows the tithi at sunrise. Ashtami runs from 13:55 on Wed 26 Sep to 16:10 on Thu 27 Sep, so it holds sunrise only on Thu 27 Sep, at 05:58. 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.
