Onam is the day, while the Sun is in Simha, on which Thiruvonam (Shravana) nakshatra holds at sunrise; when it touches no sunrise that month, it is the day the nakshatra begins. A nakshatra begins and ends at a real minute, so the day can move with the place.

For New Delhi, in IST.

A festival’s tithi begins and ends at the same instant all over the world, but the day that holds it at sunrise, at sunset or at midnight depends on where you are. So Diwali or Janmashtami can fall a day earlier in America than in India. Pick your city in the box at the top and every date and time is worked out for it.

A festival is the same day for everybody. Your chart is not.
