India is a country of festivals and traditions, and this is the beauty through which it is the center of attraction of people all over the world. Since ancient times, according to astrology, this festival of Rangotsav has been celebrated with great pomp by people of all age groups every year on the full moon day of Falgun month i.e. the day after Holika Dahan. The full moon day of Falgun month started from 1:32 pm today i.e. 17th March and will continue till 12:49 pm on the next day i.e. 18th March. The festival of Holika Dahan is a night festival, in the scriptures, and celebrating Holika Dahan during the day time is considered inauspicious.

When is Holi?

The colourful celebration of Holi is celebrated on the next day of Holika Dahan, according to the Vedic calendar. Because Holika Dahan will be performed on the night of March 17th, the correct date to celebrate Holi is Friday, March 18th, which is the Pratipada date of the Chaitra month Krishna Paksha. The Chaitra month Pratipada date will begin at 12:49 p.m. on March 18. The calculation of each day begins on the Udayatithi, according to the Hindu calendar. As a result, Pratipada’s sunrise will be on March 19th, and it will finish at 11.37 a.m. on the same day.

As a result, Holi will be celebrated on March 19 in various locations. However, in locations where full moon bathing is valued more, Holi will be celebrated on March 18th. Because the moon is valued more in full moon dates, the importance of sunrise is not taken into account. In this case, the full moon date will only be valid on March 17. After Holika Dahan on the night of the 17th of March, Pratipada Tithi on the 18th of March can be filled with colour and vigour.
