When it falls
Varuthini Ekadashi always falls on the Ekadashi tithi of the Krishna paksha in the lunar month of Jyeshtha. Because the lunar month is shorter than the solar one, its Gregorian date shifts each year — the table above gives 2025, 2026, 2027. The observance day is fixed by which tithi is running at sunrise, which is why the date can differ by a day between regional panchangs.
The fast and its parana
An Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise and is completed with the parana on Dwadashi, the following day. Tradition holds that the parana should be taken after sunrise and before the Dwadashi tithi ends — the exact window for Varuthini Ekadashi is given above. How strictly the fast is kept (waterless, fruit-only, or a single sattvic meal) varies by family tradition and by what a person can reasonably manage.
