The almanac is the same for everyone in a city. Your chart says which of these hours and days lean your way, from your own Moon and your own periods.
How this is worked out
The day is the one the classical rule gives for this festival — the tithi at sunrise, or at the time of day its worship belongs to (Lakṣmī pūjā at dusk). Times are computed for each city on that day, to the minute, in the sidereal zodiac (Lahiri). Pradosh Kāla is the first three of the night's fifteen muhūrtas after sunset; the Lakṣmī pūjā window is where it meets the fixed Vṛṣabha lagna. An almanac's window for reflection and practice — not a guarantee of any outcome.
