Full panchang for Sun 9 Oct in Olean

Why is Durga Ashtami on Sun 9 Oct in Olean?

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

Sunrise at 07:18 is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 11:54.

Ashtami at sunrise, 07:19. Ashtami: 11:54 Sat to 13:01.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC−4). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

Durga Ashtami follows the tithi at sunrise. Ashtami runs from 11:54 on Sat 8 Oct to 13:01 on Sun 9 Oct, so it holds sunrise only on Sun 9 Oct, at 07:19. 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.
