Why is Durga Ashtami on Sat 12 Oct in Pāthardi?

Durga Ashtami is on Sat 12 Oct: Ashtami holds sunrise that day.

Sunrise at 06:22 is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 17:38.

Ashtami at sunrise, 06:22. Ashtami: 17:38 Fri to 15:26.

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

Durga Ashtami follows the tithi at sunrise. Ashtami runs from 17:38 on Fri 11 Oct to 15:26 on Sat 12 Oct, so it holds sunrise only on Sat 12 Oct, at 06:22. 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.
