Frequently asked questions about the ISKCON Calendar 2035

How many festivals and vrats does the ISKCON Calendar list in 2035?

The ISKCON Calendar lists 41 dates in 2035, of which 25 are vrats. The first is Saphala Ekadashi on Friday, 5 January 2035, and the last is Saphala Ekadashi on Tuesday, 25 December 2035.

What are the main festival dates in the ISKCON Calendar for 2035?

The first major observances of 2035 are:

  • Holika Dahan - Friday, 23 March 2035
  • Holi / Dhuleti / Shimga - Saturday, 24 March 2035
  • Rama Navami - Monday, 16 April 2035
  • Akshaya Tritiya (Akha Teej) - Thursday, 10 May 2035
  • Narasimha Jayanti - Sunday, 20 May 2035
  • Snana Yatra - Wednesday, 20 June 2035
Which traditional year does 2035 correspond to in the ISKCON Calendar?

The Gregorian year 2035 spans Vikram Samvat 2091 – 2092. 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.

Will there be an Adhik Maas in 2035?

No. 2035 has 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.

Will there be any eclipses in 2035?

2035 has 4 eclipses:

  • 22 February 2035 - Penumbral lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), not visible from India
  • 10 March 2035 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
  • 19 August 2035 - Partial lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal will be observed
  • 2 September 2035 - Total solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal will be observed

Sutak Kaal is observed only for an eclipse actually visible where you are, so 2 of these will be kept in India.

Will Guru or Shani change sign in 2035?

Yes - 1 sign change among the slow grahas in 2035:

  • Guru (Jupiter) enters Mesha on 6 April 2035

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 2035?

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 ISKCON Calendar opens on the current month.
