Frequently asked questions about the Kannada Panchanga 1954
How many festivals and vrats does the Kannada Panchanga list in 1954?
The Kannada Panchanga lists 272 dates in 1954, of which 221 are vrats. The first is Shani Pradosh Vrat on Saturday, 2 January 1954, and the last is Skanda Shashthi on Thursday, 30 December 1954.
What are the main festival dates in the Kannada Panchanga for 1954?
The first major observances of 1954 are:
- Bhogi / Lohri - Wednesday, 13 January 1954
- Makar Sankranti / Uttarayan / Pongal - Thursday, 14 January 1954
- Thaipusam - Tuesday, 19 January 1954
- Vasant Panchami - Sunday, 7 February 1954
- Ratha Saptami - Tuesday, 9 February 1954
- Bhishma Ashtami - Wednesday, 10 February 1954
Which month of 1954 has the most observances in the Kannada Panchanga?
May 1954 is the fullest month with 26 dates, including Masik Shivaratri, Amavasya, Anvadhan, Darsha Amavasya, Ishti, Parashurama Jayanti, Akshaya Tritiya (Akha Teej), Vinayaka Chaturthi.
Which traditional year does 1954 correspond to in the Kannada Panchanga?
The Gregorian year 1954 spans Shaka Samvat 1875 – 1876. 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 1954 have an Adhik Maas?
No. 1954 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 1954?
1954 had 5 eclipses:
- 5 January 1954 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
- 19 January 1954 - Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed
- 30 June 1954 - Total solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed
- 16 July 1954 - Partial lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed
- 25 December 1954 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
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 1954?
Yes - 2 sign changes among the slow grahas in 1954:
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Mithuna on 20 April 1954
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Karka on 9 September 1954
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 1954?
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 Kannada Panchanga opens on the current month.
About the Kannada Panchanga
The Kannada Panchanga (Shalivahana Shaka, Yugadi new year). Each day shows its tithi, nakshatra and festivals, with the Shaka year and the 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.
