Phalguna in the context of Solar calendar

Holi (IPA: ['hoːli:, hoːɭiː]) is a major Hindu festival celebrated as the Festival of Colours, Love and Spring.It celebrates the eternal and divine love of the deities Radha and Krishna.Additionally, the day signifies the triumph of good over evil, as it commemorates the victory of Vishnu as Narasimha over Hiranyakashipu. Holi originated and is predominantly celebrated in the Indian subcontinent, but has also spread to other regions of Asia and parts of the Western world through the Indian diaspora.

Holi also celebrates the arrival of spring in India, the end of winter, and the blossoming of love. It is also an invocation for a good spring harvest season. It lasts for a night and a day, starting on the evening of the Purnima (full moon day) falling on the Hindu calendar month of Phalguna, which falls around the middle of March in the Gregorian calendar.

Shishira (Sanskrit: शिशिर, romanized: Śiśira) is the season of winter in the Hindu calendar. It comprises the months of Magha and Phalguna and corresponds to mid-January to mid-March in the Gregorian calendar.

Kumbha is a month in the Indian solar calendar. It corresponds to the zodiacal sign of Aquarius, and overlaps with about the second half of February and about the first half of March in the Gregorian calendar.

In Vedic texts, the Kumbha month is called Tapas (IAST: Tapas), but in these ancient texts it has no zodiacal associations. The solar month of Kumbha overlaps with its lunar month Phalguna, in Hindu lunisolar calendars. The Kumbha marks the end of winter for the Indian subcontinent. It is preceded by the solar month of Makara, and followed by the solar month of Mīna. The solar month is significant because it inspires the name of the 12-year cycled Kumbha Mela, where Hindu pilgrims gather by tens of millions to one of four pilgrimage sites, in the weeks before it starts.

Panguni is the twelfth and last month of the Tamil calendar. The name of the month is derived from the position of the Moon near the Uttiram nakshatra (star) on the pournami (full moon) day. The month corresponds to pin-pani kaalam (pre-vernal season) and falls in March–April in the Gregorian calendar.

In the Hindu lunar calendar, it corresponds to the twelfth month of Phalguna, falling in the Gregorian months of December–January. In the Hindu solar calendar, it corresponds to the eleventh month of Kumbha and begins with the Sun's entry into Aquarius. In the Vaishnav calendar, it corresponds to the twelfth month of Govinda.
