Why is Karwa Chauth on Fri 15 Oct in Pāthardi?

Karwa Chauth is on Fri 15 Oct: Chaturthi touches moonrise on neither night, and the later day is taken.

Moonrise at 19:51 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 23:36.

Chaturthi ended at 20:27; moonrise at 20:50 is Panchami. Chaturthi: 23:36 Thu to 20:27.

One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 23:36 on Thu 14 Oct to 20:27 on Fri 15 Oct, between the two nights’ moonrise, touching neither. The Dharmasindhu then takes the later day: Fri 15 Oct.

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.
