Frequently asked questions about the Kannada Panchanga 1962
How many festivals and vrats does the Kannada Panchanga list in 1962?
The Kannada Panchanga lists 270 dates in 1962, of which 219 are vrats. The first is Saphala Ekadashi on Tuesday, 2 January 1962, and the last is Vinayaka Chaturthi on Sunday, 30 December 1962.
What are the main festival dates in the Kannada Panchanga for 1962?
The first major observances of 1962 are:
- Bhogi / Lohri - Saturday, 13 January 1962
- Makar Sankranti / Uttarayan / Pongal - Sunday, 14 January 1962
- Thaipusam - Sunday, 21 January 1962
- Vasant Panchami - Friday, 9 February 1962
- Ratha Saptami - Sunday, 11 February 1962
- Bhishma Ashtami - Monday, 12 February 1962
Which month of 1962 has the most observances in the Kannada Panchanga?
May 1962 is the fullest month with 25 dates, including Bhaum Pradosh Vrat, Masik Shivaratri, Anvadhan, Darsha Amavasya, Amavasya, Ishti, Akshaya Tritiya (Akha Teej), Parashurama Jayanti.
Which traditional year does 1962 correspond to in the Kannada Panchanga?
The Gregorian year 1962 spans Shaka Samvat 1883 – 1884. 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 1962 have an Adhik Maas?
No. 1962 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 1962?
1962 had 5 eclipses:
- 5 February 1962 - Total solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
- 19 February 1962 - Penumbral lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), penumbral only, so no Sutak was observed
- 17 July 1962 - Penumbral lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), penumbral only, so no Sutak was observed
- 31 July 1962 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
- 16 August 1962 - Penumbral lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), penumbral only, so no Sutak was observed
None of them carried Sutak Kaal in India.
Did Guru or Shani change sign in 1962?
Yes - 1 sign change among the slow grahas in 1962:
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Kumbha on 24 February 1962
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 1962?
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.
