Why is Karwa Chauth on Wed 19 Oct in Sevan?

Karwa Chauth is on Wed 19 Oct: Chaturthi touches moonrise on neither night, and the later day is taken.

Moonrise at 20:16 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 21:17. Chaturthi: 21:17 to 18:02 Wed.

Chaturthi ended at 18:02; moonrise at 21:06 is Panchami. Chaturthi: 21:17 Tue to 18:02.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 21:17 on Tue 18 Oct to 18:02 on Wed 19 Oct, between the two nights’ moonrise, touching neither. The Dharmasindhu then takes the later day: Wed 19 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.
