Why is Karwa Chauth on Mon 12 Oct in Sofia?

Karwa Chauth is on Mon 12 Oct: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 19:40. Chaturthi: 15:49 to 14:47 Tue.

Chaturthi ended at 14:47; moonrise at 20:16 is Panchami.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 15:49 on Mon 12 Oct to 14:47 on Tue 13 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Mon 12 Oct, at 19:40.

The rule

Kartika Krishna Chaturthi (purnimanta) · Ashwina Krishna Chaturthi (amanta)

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise.

Smarta: the night whose moonrise Chaturthi holds; when it touches both, the earlier; when neither, the later (Dharmasindhu).
Vaishnava: the Smarta day.
