How does the Marathi Calendar work?
The Marathi Calendar follows amanta lunar months, each ending on Amavasya; the Shaka year begins at Gudi Padwa. Each month has a Shukla (bright) and Krishna (dark) paksha of about fifteen tithis, and an Adhika masa is added about every three years to stay in step with the seasons. The Shaka year and the samvatsara both change on Gudi Padwa (Chaitra Shukla Pratipada). Festivals still follow the lunar tithi, so their dates move each year.
