Nirjala Ekadashi 2027: Monday, 14 June 2027
Shukla Ekadashi · amanta Jyeshtha · computed for New Delhi
Nirjala Ekadashi in 2027 falls on Monday, 14 June 2027. It is kept on the Shukla Ekadashi of amanta Jyeshtha.
Why Nirjala Ekadashi Is on 14 June in 2027
The Shukla Ekadashi begins at 02:12 on 14 June 2027 and ends at 02:08 on 15 June 2027. The 2027 instants are the same everywhere; only the clock they are read on changes. The rule recorded for Nirjala Ekadashi tests the tithi at sunrise, the default test for most of the calendar.
On 14 June 2027 the Sun rises at 05:22 and sets at 19:19 at New Delhi. The Shukla Ekadashi is running at that sunrise, which is the test, so 14 June 2027 is the day.
In 2027 the Shukla Ekadashi lasts 23 hours 56 minutes, against 25 hours 57 minutes in 2026 and 21 hours 54 minutes in 2028: a tithi is twelve degrees of the Moon’s gain on the Sun, and the Moon never gains at a steady rate. The day itself runs 13 hours 57 minutes from sunrise to sunset at New Delhi.
The daily panchang for 14 June 2027 gives Shukla Ekadashi at sunrise; the day before, Shukla Dashami; the day after, Shukla Dwadashi. At that sunrise the yoga is Variyan and the karana Vanija. The panchang for 14 June 2027 has the rest of the day.
When the Shukla Ekadashi begins, the Moon is in Chitra, ruled by Mars.
