• Mon 12 Oct Crescent visible: 5:51 – 6:55 pm Purattasi 25 Thithi: Sun 9:46 pm to Mon 10:28 pm

Crescent time, for Chennai: the first time is the true sunset, when the sun really sets (Thirukanithaⓘதிருக்கணிதம்: Modern astronomical reckoning that matches the observed sky.); the second is when the crescent sets. The crescent is watched in the sky, so the sky's own times count; the Vakya almanac's sunset is a few minutes later. Wait 10–15 minutes after sunset and look a little above where the sun went down.
