Why is Durga Ashtami on Wed 17 Oct in Thazhecode?
Durga Ashtami is on Wed 17 Oct: Ashtami holds sunrise that day.
Sunrise at 06:15 is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 10:16.
Ashtami at sunrise, 06:15. Ashtami: 10:16 Tue to 12:50.
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 10:16 on Tue 16 Oct to 12:50 on Wed 17 Oct, so it holds sunrise only on Wed 17 Oct, at 06:15. No text giving Durga Ashtami’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
