The rule behind each date
Pradosh vrat is kept for Lord Shiva on the Trayodashi (thirteenth tithi) of both the waxing and the waning moon. The vrat day is the one on which the Trayodashi tithi is running at sunset, when the pradosh period of evening worship begins. A Pradosh on a Monday is Som Pradosh, on a Tuesday Bhaum Pradosh and on a Saturday Shani Pradosh. Dates can differ by a day between cities when the tithi changes close to the deciding moment.
