Frequently asked questions about the Tamil Panchangam 2025
How many festivals and vrats does the Tamil Panchangam list in 2025?
The Tamil Panchangam lists 279 dates in 2025, of which 216 are vrats. The first is Vinayaka Chaturthi on Friday, 3 January 2025, and the last is Vaikunta Ekadashi on Tuesday, 30 December 2025.
What are the main festival dates in the Tamil Panchangam for 2025?
The first major observances of 2025 are:
- Vaikunta Ekadashi - Friday, 10 January 2025
- Bhogi / Lohri - Monday, 13 January 2025
- Margazhi Thiruvathirai (Arudra Darshan) - Monday, 13 January 2025
- Makar Sankranti / Uttarayan / Pongal - Tuesday, 14 January 2025
- Mattu Pongal - Wednesday, 15 January 2025
- Thaipusam - Wednesday, 15 January 2025
Which month of 2025 has the most observances in the Tamil Panchangam?
July 2025 is the fullest month with 26 dates, including Ani Thirumanjanam, Masik Durgashtami, Raivata Manvadi, Devshayani (Ashadhi) Ekadashi, Bhaum Pradosh Vrat, Anvadhan, Ashadha Purnima Vrat, Chakshusha Manvadi.
Which traditional year does 2025 correspond to in the Tamil Panchangam?
The Gregorian year 2025 spans Shaka Samvat 1946 – 1947. 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 2025 have an Adhik Maas?
No. 2025 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 2025?
2025 had 4 eclipses:
- 14 March 2025 - Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), not visible from India
- 29 March 2025 - Partial solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
- 7 September 2025 - Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed

Did Guru or Shani change sign in 2025?
Yes - 4 sign changes among the slow grahas in 2025:
- Shani (Saturn) entered Meena on 29 March 2025
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Mithuna on 14 May 2025
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Karka on 18 October 2025
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Mithuna on 5 December 2025, moving retrograde
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 2025?
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.
