Hindu Calendar August 2027
Shravan – Bhadrapad
Every day with the tithi at sunrise, the Purnimanta month (North India’s, ending on the full moon), and the festivals and vrats kept in it, for New Delhi.
The number on each day is the tithi at sunrise in New Delhi, counted within its paksha, as a wall calendar prints it. A date you can tap has its full panchang on a page of its own.
Chaturmas Wednesday, 14 July to Wednesday, 10 November: the four months of Vishnu’s rest, from Devshayani to Dev Uthani Ekadashi; it closes a wedding, a janeu and a study start (Vidyarambha), which can be held again from Wednesday, 10 November, Dev Uthani Ekadashi itself; others are closed in these days anyway: a mundan by the Sun’s month, griha pravesh by its lunar month.
Sawan Monday, 19 July to Tuesday, 17 August: Shiva’s month; its Mondays are the Sawan Somvar vrats.
Surya Grahan (solar eclipse) Monday, 2 August: seen in New Delhi from 3:53 PM to 5:02 PM, a partial eclipse here: at its height the Moon covers about 17% of the Sun’s width. Sutak from 3:53 AM, twelve hours before it begins, to its end: no muhurat is taken in that time.

The tithi column is the tithi at sunrise in New Delhi. Each vrat and festival is kept by its tithi at its own moment: Pradosh in the evening, Shivratri at midnight (nishita), Sankashti at moonrise, the Purnima fast at midday, Diwali after sunset. So a vrat can fall on a day whose sunrise tithi is still the previous one.
Raksha Bandhan is on Tuesday, 17 August and the Shravan Purnima vrat on Monday, 16 August: Raksha Bandhan goes by the Purnima at sunrise, and the Purnima fast is kept on the first day Purnima holds at midday (madhyahna). The holy dip and daan (snan-daan) are on Tuesday, 17 August, when Purnima holds at sunrise.
Hariyali Teej is on Wednesday, 4 August, the day its tithi, Tritiya, begins: in 2027 it starts after one sunrise and ends before the next, so no sunrise shows it.

Words on this page
what each term means- Purnimanta: the North Indian calendar, where a month ends on Purnima, the full moon. In the Amanta calendar of the west and south a month ends on Amavasya, so in the dark half the two give the month different names.
- Shukla and Krishna paksha: the bright half of the month, as the Moon grows to Purnima, and the dark half, as it wanes to Amavasya.
- Sankranti: the day the Sun enters a new rashi; Makar Sankranti is the best known.
- Pradosh: the evening hours just after sunset.
- Nishita: the midnight hour, when Shivratri and Janmashtami puja is done.
- Aparahna and madhyahna: the afternoon (the fourth of five equal parts of daylight) and the middle of the day.
- Parana: the window for breaking a fast, such as the Ekadashi fast on the next morning.
- Snan-daan: the holy dip and the gifts given on a Purnima or Amavasya.
- Kshaya: a tithi that begins after one sunrise and ends before the next, so no sunrise shows it; it is kept on the day it begins.
