Why is Vijaya Ekadashi on Fri 17 Feb in Sevan?
Vijaya Ekadashi is on Fri 17 Feb: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 05:07 to 03:59 Sat.
Ekadashi ended at 03:59; arunodaya is Dwadashi.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Fri 17 Feb only, at 07:52: Fri 17 Feb. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 05:07, before it (06:16–07:52).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sat 18 Feb, 09:46–18:37 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 03:59 on Sat 18 Feb to 03:08 on Sun 19 Feb; harivasara ends at 09:46. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:37: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 10:00.
