Full panchang for Thu 9 Oct in Diffa

Why is Durga Ashtami on Thu 9 Oct in Diffa?

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

Ashtami at sunrise, 05:59. Ashtami: 01:47 to 00:47 Fri.

Ashtami ended at 00:47; sunrise at 05:59 is Navami.

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 01:47 on Thu 9 Oct to 00:47 on Fri 10 Oct, so it holds sunrise only on Thu 9 Oct, at 05:59. 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.
