Why is Karwa Chauth on Sat 23 Oct in Halifax?

By the Dharmasindhu, Karwa Chauth is on Sat 23 Oct: Chaturthi touches moonrise on both nights and it takes the earlier.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 19:52. Chaturthi: 18:32 to 21:13 Sun.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 20:26. Chaturthi: 18:32 Sat to 21:13.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 18:32 on Sat 23 Oct to 21:13 on Sun 24 Oct, touching moonrise on both nights. When it does, the Dharmasindhu takes the earlier day: Sat 23 Oct.
