Frequently asked questions about the Tamil Panchangam 1951

How many festivals and vrats does the Tamil Panchangam list in 1951?

The Tamil Panchangam lists 279 dates in 1951, of which 220 are vrats. The first is Kalashtami on Monday, 1 January 1951, and the last is Vinayaka Chaturthi on Monday, 31 December 1951.

What are the main festival dates in the Tamil Panchangam for 1951?

The first major observances of 1951 are:

  • Bhogi / Lohri - Saturday, 13 January 1951
  • Makar Sankranti / Uttarayan / Pongal - Sunday, 14 January 1951
  • Mattu Pongal - Monday, 15 January 1951
  • Thaipusam - Tuesday, 23 January 1951
  • Vasant Panchami - Saturday, 10 February 1951
  • Ratha Saptami - Tuesday, 13 February 1951
Which month of 1951 has the most observances in the Tamil Panchangam?

September 1951 is the fullest month with 26 dates, including Amavasya, Anvadhan, Darsha Amavasya, Ishti, Rudra Savarni Manvadi, Ganesh Chaturthi, Rishi Panchami, Skanda Shashthi.

Which traditional year does 1951 correspond to in the Tamil Panchangam?

The Gregorian year 1951 spans Shaka Samvat 1872 – 1873. 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 1951 have an Adhik Maas?

No. 1951 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 1951?

1951 had 5 eclipses:

  • 8 March 1951 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
  • 23 March 1951 - Penumbral lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), penumbral only, so no Sutak was observed
  • 17 August 1951 - Penumbral lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), not visible from India
  • 1 September 1951 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
  • 15 September 1951 - 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 1951?

Yes - 1 sign change among the slow grahas in 1951:

  • Guru (Jupiter) entered Meena on 23 March 1951

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 1951?

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 Tamil Panchangam - Vakya & Thirukanitha opens on the current month.

About the Tamil Panchangam - Vakya & Thirukanitha

The Tamil Panchangam. Each day shows its tithi, nakshatra and festivals, with the Tamil solar month and the Thiruvalluvar Aandu year. Positions follow the Thirukanitha (astronomical) method; traditional Vakya almanacs may differ slightly.

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.
