Frequently asked questions about the Hindu Calendar 1957

How many festivals and vrats does the Hindu Calendar list in 1957?

The Hindu Calendar lists 373 dates in 1957, of which 234 are vrats. The first is Ishti on Tuesday, 1 January 1957, and the last is Masik Durgashtami on Sunday, 29 December 1957.

What are the main festival dates in the Hindu Calendar for 1957?

The first major observances of 1957 are:

  • Samba Dashami - Friday, 11 January 1957
  • Vaikunta Ekadashi - Saturday, 12 January 1957
  • Bhogi / Lohri - Sunday, 13 January 1957

  • Mattu Pongal - Tuesday, 15 January 1957
  • Thaipusam - Thursday, 17 January 1957
Which month of 1957 has the most observances in the Hindu Calendar?

Which traditional year does 1957 correspond to in the Hindu Calendar?

The Gregorian year 1957 spans Vikram Samvat 2013 – 2014. The traditional year does not begin on 1 January, so one Gregorian year usually covers the end of one era year and the start of the next.

Did 1957 have an Adhik Maas?

No. 1957 had twelve lunar months with no Adhik Maas, so its festival dates fall in their usual Gregorian window rather than being pushed later by an intercalary month.

Were there any eclipses in 1957?

1957 had 4 eclipses:

  • 30 April 1957 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed

  • 23 October 1957 - Total solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
  • 7 November 1957 - Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed

Sutak Kaal is observed only for an eclipse actually visible where you are, so 3 of these were kept in India.

Did Guru or Shani change sign in 1957?

Yes - 3 sign changes among the slow grahas in 1957:

  • Guru (Jupiter) entered Simha on 18 April 1957, moving retrograde
  • Guru (Jupiter) entered Kanya on 19 June 1957
  • Guru (Jupiter) entered Tula on 28 November 1957

Jupiter takes about a year to cross one sign and Saturn about two and a half, so these transits colour the whole year rather than a single week.

How do I see the tithi and nakshatra for a specific date in 1957?

Use the month grid above: pick a month from the selector, then tap any day to open its full panchang - tithi with start and end times, nakshatra, yoga, karana, sunrise and sunset, and the inauspicious periods (Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika Kalam). Set your city in the box at the top first, because these timings are sunrise-based and shift with location. The Hindu Calendar - Panchangam opens on the current month.

About the Hindu Calendar - Panchangam

The Hindu lunar calendar (Panchang). Each day shows its tithi, nakshatra and any festivals or vrats, with the Vikram Samvat year and the lunar (Amanta) month.

Each day lists its tithi and paksha, the nakshatra, the weekday (vaar) and any festivals or vrats. Tap any day to see the full panchang for that date - tithi start and end times, nakshatra, yoga, karana, sunrise and sunset, and the inauspicious periods (Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika Kalam). Use the month and year selectors to browse any year in the archive or plan ahead into the coming years.

This calendar names the tithi and festivals for each day. For sunrise, Rahu Kalam and muhurat windows on a chosen date, open the Panchang. Other regional calendars are on the Calendars index. Fast stories live under Vrat Katha.
