Questions, answered

How many Masik Durgashtami are there in 2027?

There are 12 Masik Durgashtami occurrences in 2027 at the reference location, each computed from the real tithi.

How is the observance day fixed?

Each vrat has its own anchor — Sankashti by moonrise, Pradosh by sunset (Pradosh Kaal), Masik Shivratri by Nishita (midnight) and Durgashtami by sunrise. The day is the one on which the required tithi prevails at that moment — a cited convention, validated against Drik Panchang for the reference place.

Are these dates location-specific?

The tithi instants are global; the sunrise-based day is computed at New Delhi and can shift by one day elsewhere.
