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 3 Jan?

Saphala Ekadashi is on Sun 3 Jan: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 05:54. Ekadashi: 05:54 to 07:38 Sun.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:54 Sat to 07:38.

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 Sun 3 Jan only, at 05:42: Sun 3 Jan. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 05:54 Sat, before it (04:06–05:42).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Mon 4 Jan, 05:43–09:46

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 07:38 on Sun 3 Jan to 09:46 on Mon 4 Jan; harivasara ends at 14:10 Sun. So parana runs from sunrise on Mon 4 Jan, 05:43.

Why Thu 23 Dec?

Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 15:11.

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 24 Dec, 05:36–14:38

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 14:42 on Thu 23 Dec to 14:38 on Fri 24 Dec; harivasara ends at 20:41 Thu. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 24 Dec, 05:36. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:14.

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).
