Why is Karwa Chauth on Sat 18 Oct in Baoding?

Karwa Chauth is on Sat 18 Oct: Chaturthi touches moonrise on neither night, and the later day is taken.

Moonrise at 18:53 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 19:09. Chaturthi: 19:09 to 16:08 Sat.

Chaturthi ended at 16:08; moonrise at 19:47 is Panchami. Chaturthi: 19:09 Fri to 16:08.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 19:09 on Fri 17 Oct to 16:08 on Sat 18 Oct, between the two nights’ moonrise, touching neither. The Dharmasindhu then takes the later day: Sat 18 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.
