Vasant Panchami Saraswati Puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Vasant Panchami on Sat 28 Jan in Baoding?
Vasant Panchami is on Sat 28 Jan: Panchami holds all of purvahna that morning, and no other.
Purvahna is Chaturthi; Panchami begins at 16:17.
Panchami holds all of purvahna, 07:28–12:30. Panchami: 16:17 Fri to 18:00.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). 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 16:17 on Fri 27 Jan to 18:00 on Sat 28 Jan, so only Saturday’s purvahna (07:28–12:30) falls within it. No text giving Vasant Panchami’s time was found; purvahna is Tithika’s convention.
