Why is Karwa Chauth on Mon 18 Oct in Berkeley?

Karwa Chauth is on Mon 18 Oct: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Moonrise at 19:31 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 05:22 Mon.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 20:18. Chaturthi: 05:22 to 04:12 Tue.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC−7). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 05:22 on Mon 18 Oct to 04:12 on Tue 19 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Mon 18 Oct, at 20:18.

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.
