Why is Karwa Chauth on Sat 7 Oct in Lib?

Karwa Chauth is on Sat 7 Oct: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 21:00. Chaturthi: 10:05 to 11:21 Sun.

Chaturthi ended at 11:21; moonrise at 21:50 is Panchami.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+12). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 10:05 on Sat 7 Oct to 11:21 on Sun 8 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Sat 7 Oct, at 21:00.

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.
