Common questions

When does Shukla Paksha start in August 2029?

The Shukla Paksha window in August 2029: Shravana Shukla Paksha from 11 Aug 2029 to 24 Aug 2029.

Why can one civil month have two windows?

A lunar fortnight is about 14–15 civil days, so a civil month usually contains one full Shukla Paksha and can also catch the tail of the previous one at the start of the month. The Hindu month label changes between the two windows.

Do these dates change by city?

The paksha itself is a Moon phase and does not depend on location, but the tithi at sunrise can differ by a day between time zones. This table uses the Mumbai India-baseline sunrise.
