Why is Durga Ashtami on Thu 21 Oct in Baoding?

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

Sunrise at 06:32 is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 19:03.

Ashtami at sunrise, 06:33. Ashtami: 19:03 Wed to 16:57.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

Durga Ashtami follows the tithi at sunrise. Ashtami runs from 19:03 on Wed 20 Oct to 16:57 on Thu 21 Oct, so it holds sunrise only on Thu 21 Oct, at 06:33. 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.
