Why is Karwa Chauth on Fri 16 Oct in Same?

Karwa Chauth is on Fri 16 Oct: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Moonrise at 20:24 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 05:29 Fri.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 21:24. Chaturthi: 05:29 to 02:18 Sat.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 05:29 on Fri 16 Oct to 02:18 on Sat 17 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Fri 16 Oct, at 21:24.

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.
