Sunrise

Why is Durga Ashtami on Mon 22 Oct in Diffa?
Durga Ashtami is on Mon 22 Oct: Ashtami holds sunrise that day.
Sunrise at 06:01 is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 17:15.
Ashtami at sunrise, 06:01. Ashtami: 17:15 Sun to 15:56.
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 17:15 on Sun 21 Oct to 15:56 on Mon 22 Oct, so it holds sunrise only on Mon 22 Oct, at 06:01. No text giving Durga Ashtami’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.

Durga Ashtami follows the tithi at sunrise.
- Smarta
- the day Ashtami holds at sunrise: Tithika’s convention, since no text gives the time.
