A month-by-month list of every Sankranti of the year — the day the Sun enters a new sidereal sign, twelve times across the year. Each Sankranti is a parva (holy day) for a sacred bath, charity (daan) and offerings to the ancestors; Makar Sankranti (Uttarayana) and Karka Sankranti (Dakshinayana) mark the turn of the Sun's course.

About the Sankranti Vrat Calendar
A month-by-month list of every Sankranti of the year — the day the Sun enters a new sidereal sign, twelve times across the year. Each Sankranti is a parva (holy day) for a sacred bath, charity (daan) and offerings to the ancestors; Makar Sankranti (Uttarayana) and Karka Sankranti (Dakshinayana) mark the turn of the Sun's course.
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).
