What to watch in May

These observances often appear around this civil month, but exact dates must be calculated for 2031. Lunar tithis can shift across sunrise, evening, moonrise, or night windows.

How to use this month

Civil dates do not always line up neatly with Hindu lunar days. A tithi can begin or end during the civil day, so important observances depend on which tithi prevails at the rule-specific time such as sunrise, pradosha, madhyahna, or nishita.

1.Open the interactive calendar and switch to May 2031.
2.Select candidate dates and compare tithi, paksha, nakshatra, sunrise, and sunset.
3.For festivals, confirm the rule moment: sunrise, madhyahna, pradosha, moonrise, or nishita.
4.Open the full Panchang for the chosen day before using it for a vrata, puja, travel, or ceremony.

Why the table still needs local verification

Hindu calendar dates are calculated from the Sun, Moon, and local day. A single civil month can contain parts of two Hindu lunar months, and a festival window may move into the previous or next civil month depending on the year.

Treat this Mumbai-based table as a readable reference for May 2031. Use it to understand the likely Hindu-calendar context, then rely on the city Panchang and festival pages when a vrata, puja, or ceremony depends on local sunrise, moonrise, pradosha, madhyahna, or nishita timing.
