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 6 Jan?

Saphala Ekadashi is on Fri 6 Jan: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 20:01 Thu to 18:40.

Ekadashi ended at 18:40 Fri; arunodaya is Dwadashi.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC−2). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Fri 6 Jan only, at 06:44: Fri 6 Jan. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 20:01 Thu, before it (05:08–06:44).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 7 Jan, 06:44–17:33

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 18:40 on Fri 6 Jan to 17:33 on Sat 7 Jan; harivasara ends at 00:23. So parana runs from sunrise on Sat 7 Jan, 06:44. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:22.

Why Wed 27 Dec?

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

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 28 Dec, 06:38–10:16

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 13:06 on Wed 27 Dec to 10:16 on Thu 28 Dec; harivasara ends at 18:23 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 28 Dec, 06:38.

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).
