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 Sun 4 Jan?
Saphala Ekadashi is on Sun 4 Jan: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 07:42. Ekadashi: 07:42 to 06:06 Sun.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sun 4 Jan only, at 05:43: Sun 4 Jan. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 07:42 Sat, before it (04:07–05:43).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 5 Jan, 05:43–18:52 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 03:44 on Mon 5 Jan, in the night, before arunodaya (04:07): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:43, to sunset, 18:52, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.

Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 25 Dec, 05:37–11:45
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 11:46 on Thu 24 Dec to 11:45 on Fri 25 Dec; harivasara ends at 17:46 Thu. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 25 Dec, 05:37.
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).
