What are the main festival dates in the Amavasya - Purnima Vrat Calendar for 2032?

- Jyeshtha Amavasya (Shani Jayanti) - Tuesday, 8 June 2032
Which traditional year does 2032 correspond to in the Amavasya - Purnima Vrat Calendar?
The Gregorian year 2032 spans Vikram Samvat 2088 – 2089. 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 2032?
No. 2032 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 2032?
2032 has 4 eclipses:
- 25 April 2032 - Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal will be observed
- 9 May 2032 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
- 19 October 2032 - Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal will be observed
- 3 November 2032 - Partial 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 3 of these will be kept in India.
Will Guru or Shani change sign in 2032?
Yes - 4 sign changes among the slow grahas in 2032:
- Guru (Jupiter) enters Makara on 5 March 2032
- Shani (Saturn) enters Mithuna on 31 May 2032
- Guru (Jupiter) enters Dhanu on 12 August 2032, moving retrograde
- Guru (Jupiter) enters Makara on 23 October 2032
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.
Are these 2032 dates the same everywhere?
The dates follow the standard Indian sunrise-based calendar. Because a tithi begins and ends at a fixed moment rather than at midnight, an observance can fall a day earlier or later where sunrise differs - most noticeably outside India. Set your city in the box at the top to see the start and end times in your own local time, and check the daily Panchang for the exact window on the day.
About the Amavasya - Purnima Vrat Calendar
A month-by-month list of every Purnima (full moon) and Amavasya (new moon) of the year, named by its lunar month, with the festivity kept on it - from Holi, Buddha Purnima, Guru Purnima and Sharad Purnima to Mauni Amavasya, Mahalaya and Diwali - and the tithi start and end timing of each.
Each entry lists the festival or vrat with its date, the prevailing tithi, and a short note on the observance. Use the year links to plan ahead into the coming years or to look up a date from the archive.
This list is the festival dates, not the daily five limbs. For sunrise, Rahu Kalam and the day's yoga, open the Panchang. Other calendars are on the Calendars index. The story of a fast is under Vrat Katha.
