Why is Karwa Chauth on Tue 31 Oct in Diffa?

Karwa Chauth is on Tue 31 Oct: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Moonrise at 18:38 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 07:10 Tue.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 19:31. Chaturthi: 07:10 to 06:27 Wed.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 07:10 on Tue 31 Oct to 06:27 on Wed 1 Nov, so it holds moonrise only on Tue 31 Oct, at 19:31.

The rule

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