Vasant Panchami 1914 in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil

Festival · times in UTC−3

Why is there no Vasant Panchami in 1914?

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.

The rule

Magha Shukla Panchami

Saraswati Puja is done in purvahna, the first half of the day.

Smarta
the morning whose purvahna Panchami holds: Tithika’s convention, since no text gives the time.
Vaishnava
the Smarta day.
