Why is Varuthini Ekadashi on Tue 7 May in Davinópolis?

Varuthini Ekadashi is on Tue 7 May: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 21:37 Mon to 00:04 Wed.

Ekadashi ended at 00:04; arunodaya is Dwadashi.

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 Tue 7 May only, at 06:09: Tue 7 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 21:37 Mon, before it (04:33–06:09).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 8 May, 06:39–18:02 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 00:04 on Wed 8 May to 02:25 on Thu 9 May; harivasara ends at 06:39. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:02: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:32.

The rule

Vaishakha Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Chaitra 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).
