Why is Holika Dahan on Sun 28 Mar in Khmelnytskyi?
Holika Dahan is on Sun 28 Mar: Purnima touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Pradosha is Chaturdashi; Purnima begins at 23:57.
Purnima holds pradosha only until 21:48; then Pratipada. Purnima: 23:57 Sat to 21:48.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). Band: the tithi. Box: Pradosha. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Holika is burnt in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset, outside bhadra. Purnima runs from 23:57 on Sat 27 Mar to 21:48 on Sun 28 Mar, so it touches only Sunday’s pradosha (19:37–21:52).
