Frequently asked questions about the Kannada Panchanga 2019
How many festivals and vrats does the Kannada Panchanga list in 2019?
The Kannada Panchanga lists 272 dates in 2019, of which 221 are vrats. The first is Saphala Ekadashi on Tuesday, 1 January 2019, and the last is Skanda Shashthi on Tuesday, 31 December 2019.
What are the main festival dates in the Kannada Panchanga for 2019?
The first major observances of 2019 are:
- Bhogi / Lohri - Monday, 14 January 2019
- Makar Sankranti / Uttarayan / Pongal - Tuesday, 15 January 2019
- Thaipusam - Monday, 21 January 2019
- Vasant Panchami - Saturday, 9 February 2019
- Ratha Saptami - Tuesday, 12 February 2019
- Bhishma Ashtami - Wednesday, 13 February 2019
Which month of 2019 has the most observances in the Kannada Panchanga?
August 2019 is the fullest month with 25 dates, including Amavasya, Ishti, Vinayaka Chaturthi, Nag Panchami, Skanda Shashthi, Masik Durgashtami, Varalakshmi Vratham, Shravana Putrada Ekadashi.
Which traditional year does 2019 correspond to in the Kannada Panchanga?
The Gregorian year 2019 spans Shaka Samvat 1940 – 1941. 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 2019 have an Adhik Maas?
No. 2019 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 2019?
2019 had 5 eclipses:
- 6 January 2019 - Partial solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
- 21 January 2019 - Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), not visible from India
- 3 July 2019 - Total solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
- 17 July 2019 - Partial lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed
- 26 December 2019 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed
Sutak Kaal is observed only for an eclipse actually visible where you are, so 2 of these were kept in India.
Did Guru or Shani change sign in 2019?
Yes - 3 sign changes among the slow grahas in 2019:
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Dhanu on 29 March 2019
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Vrishchika on 23 April 2019, moving retrograde
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Dhanu on 5 November 2019
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 2019?
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.
