Why does Saphala Ekadashi fall on these dates?

A lunar date comes about 11 days earlier each year, until an extra lunar month (adhika) moves it later again. One falling early in January can move back into the December before, so a year can have two, and the next year none.

Why Fri 8 Jan?

Saphala Ekadashi is on Fri 8 Jan: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 05:46. Ekadashi: 05:46 to 08:16 Fri.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:46 Thu to 08:16.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Fri 8 Jan only, at 05:45: Fri 8 Jan. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 05:46 Thu, before it (04:09–05:45).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 9 Jan, 05:46–10:26

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 08:16 on Fri 8 Jan to 10:26 on Sat 9 Jan; harivasara ends at 14:49 Fri. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 9 Jan, 05:46.

Why Mon 27 Dec?

Saphala Ekadashi is on Mon 27 Dec: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 02:49 to 05:13 Tue.

Ekadashi holds arunodaya only until 05:13; then Dwadashi. Ekadashi: 02:49 Mon to 05:13.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Mon 27 Dec only, at 05:38: Mon 27 Dec. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 02:49, before it (04:02–05:38).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Tue 28 Dec, 11:53–18:49 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 05:13 on Tue 28 Dec to 07:53 on Wed 29 Dec; harivasara ends at 11:53. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:49: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:17, which here ends before harivasara does.

The rule

Pausha Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Margashirsha Krishna Ekadashi (amanta)

The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.

Smarta: Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
Vaishnava: Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
Breaking the fast: on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
