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 Wed 9 Jan?

Saphala Ekadashi is on Wed 9 Jan: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 10:29.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 10:29 Tue to 09:50.

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 Wed 9 Jan only, at 06:46: Wed 9 Jan. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 10:29 Tue, before it (05:10–06:46).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Thu 10 Jan, 06:46–09:37

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 09:50 on Wed 9 Jan to 09:37 on Thu 10 Jan; harivasara ends at 15:47 Wed. So parana runs from sunrise on Thu 10 Jan, 06:46.

Why Sun 29 Dec and Mon 30 Dec?

Smarta · For Smartas, Saphala Ekadashi is on Sun 29 Dec: Ekadashi holds sunrise that day. Vaishnavas fast on Mon 30 Dec.

Dashami until 05:05, inside arunodaya; Ekadashi at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:05 to 02:45 Mon.

Ekadashi ended at 02:45; 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.

Smarta

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sun 29 Dec only, at 06:39: Sun 29 Dec.

Vaishnava

Vaishnavas test arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise. On Sun 29 Dec Dashami lasts until 05:05, inside arunodaya (05:03–06:39), so that Ekadashi is pierced. Ekadashi ends at 02:45, so Vaishnavas fast on Mon 30 Dec: Mon 30 Dec.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Mon 30 Dec, 08:10–19:50 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 02:45 on Mon 30 Dec to 00:25 on Tue 31 Dec; harivasara ends at 08:10. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 19:50: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:18.

Vaishnava · Tue 31 Dec, 06:40–19:51 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)

Dwadashi ends at 00:25 on Tue 31 Dec, in the night, before arunodaya (05:04): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 06:40, to sunset, 19:51, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.

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).
