Vasant Panchami 2001
Falls on 29 January 2001 in San Francisco, as computed from the real sky for that city.
The portal of Festivals
Today's three riddles
Turn a card. Answer all three rightly and this portal is sealed in your sky. New riddles every morning.
The day, for San Francisco
The day is chosen by the moment the tradition reads its tithi at, and the times are that day's own, computed for this city. A festival-specific puja window is not printed: those rules differ by tradition and await a scholar's review.
What the day is
Saraswati's day, and spring's first. Traditionally the day a child is taught their first letter.
One act for the day
Begin learning something you are bad at. Teach a child one letter, one word, one line.
