Why is Karwa Chauth on Sun 4 Nov in Sofia?

Karwa Chauth is on Sun 4 Nov: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 19:34. Chaturthi: 07:54 to 07:15 Mon.

Chaturthi ended at 07:15; moonrise at 20:26 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 07:54 on Sun 4 Nov to 07:15 on Mon 5 Nov, so it holds moonrise only on Sun 4 Nov, at 19:34.

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.
