When is Vasant Panchami 1973 in Pāthardi?
Vasant Panchami Saraswati Puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Vasant Panchami on Thu 8 Feb in Pāthardi?
Vasant Panchami is on Thu 8 Feb: Panchami touches purvahna that morning, and no other.
Purvahna is Chaturthi; Panchami begins at 13:17. Panchami: 13:17 to 11:58 Thu.
Panchami holds purvahna only until 11:58; then Shashthi. Panchami: 13:17 Wed to 11:58.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Purvahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Saraswati Puja is done in purvahna, the first half of the day. Panchami runs from 13:17 on Wed 7 Feb to 11:58 on Thu 8 Feb, so it touches only Thursday’s purvahna (07:01–12:43). No text giving Vasant Panchami’s time was found; purvahna is Tithika’s convention.
