When
is Pongal
Celebrate Pongal on January 15,
2019, Tuesday
Pongal is celebrated in the
month of January after the winter solstice. The date of Pongal usually remains
same as it is reckoned according to the solar calendar that is more accurate
than the lunar calendar. For Hindus the date of Pongal is extremely auspicious
as it marks the sun's entry into Makaram
Rashi or the Tropic of Capricorn from the Tropic of
Cancer. On this day sun begins its journey northwards (Uttarayan) for a period
of six months as opposed to southwards (Dakshinayan) movement. It is this
fascinating and auspicious astronomical event that is celebrated as Pongal in
South India and Makar
Sankranti in North and Central India.
Pongal festival is celebrated for four continuous days beginning
from the last day of Tamil month of Maargazhi (December-January)
and lasting upto the third day of Thai. The second and the main day of Pongal
called Surya Pongal marks the beginning of Tamil month of Thai that corresponds
to the month of January - February according to the Gregorian calendar.
Pongal brings
respite to the people as it marks the end of cold winter and the advent of
spring. From this time onwards the length of the day increases and that of the
night shortens in the Northern Hemisphere.
