Mithunam to Karkadakam in July 2027

July begins during Mithunam 1202.

The first part of the month runs through:

  • July 1 — Mithunam 16
  • July 2 — Mithunam 17
  • July 3 — Mithunam 18
  • July 4 — Mithunam 19
  • July 5 — Mithunam 20
  • July 6 — Mithunam 21
  • July 7 — Mithunam 22
  • July 8 — Mithunam 23
  • July 9 — Mithunam 24
  • July 10 — Mithunam 25
  • July 11 — Mithunam 26
  • July 12 — Mithunam 27
  • July 13 — Mithunam 28
  • July 14 — Mithunam 29
  • July 15 — Mithunam 30

The solar month then changes.

July 16, 2027 — Karkadakam 1

The supplied festival calendar marks July 16 as Karkatakam Sankramam.

This makes July the month in which the Malayalam solar calendar moves from Mithunam into Karkadakam.

Guru Pradosh Vrat – July 1

The month begins with Guru Pradosh Vrat on Thursday, July 1, 2027.

The calendar places the day at:

  • Mithunam 16
  • Krishna Dwadashi
  • Karthika Nakshatra
  • Sunrise: 06:08
  • Sunset: 18:44

Pradosh observance is traditionally associated with Lord Shiva and the evening period around sunset.

Because Pradosh timing depends on the local sunset, devotees should use a Panchang calculated for their own city when determining the exact worship period.

Amavasya and the New Lunar Cycle

The supplied calendar places Amavasya on July 4.

The sequence around Amavasya is:

  • July 3 — Krishna Chaturdashi
  • July 4 — Amavasya
  • July 5 — Shukla Dwitheeya

The calendar lists Anvadhan on July 3 and Ishti on July 4.

Listed observanceIshti

The exact beginning and ending of Amavasya can occur at different times during the civil date, so ritual timing should be checked against the local Panchang.

Shasti Vratam – July 8

Shasti Vratam is listed on Thursday, July 8, 2027.

The date corresponds to Mithunam 23, with Shukla Panchami in the supplied daily grid and Pooram Nakshatra.

The supplied festival list identifies July 8 as Shasti Vratam.

Devshayani Ekadashi – July 14

One of the most important Ekadashi observances of the month is Devshayani Ekadashi on July 14, 2027.

The supplied festival calendar places it on:

  • Mithunam 29
  • Devshayani Ekadashi
  • Sunrise: 06:11
  • Sunset: 18:45

Devshayani Ekadashi is traditionally associated with the beginning of a four-month period in which Lord Vishnu is believed, in devotional tradition, to enter a state of cosmic rest.

The period is commonly connected with the Chaturmasya observance.

For anyone keeping the fast, the exact fasting and Parana times should be calculated for the relevant location.

Guru Pradosh Vrat – July 15

The next day, July 15, is listed as Guru Pradosh Vrat.

The date is:

  • Mithunam 30
  • Shukla Dwadashi
  • Thrikketta Nakshatra
  • Sunrise: 06:11
  • Sunset: 18:45

This creates an important sequence in the middle of July: Devshayani Ekadashi followed by the next day’s Dwadashi and Pradosh observance.

Karkatakam Sankramam – July 16

Karkatakam Sankramam occurs on Friday, July 16, 2027.

This is the main Malayalam solar-calendar transition of the month.

July 16 becomes:

Karkadakam 1, Kollavarsham 1202

The supplied calendar lists:

  • Shukla Trayodashi
  • Moolam Nakshatra
  • Karkatakam Sankramam
  • Sunrise: 06:11
  • Sunset: 18:45

From July 16 onward, the Malayalam solar month shown in the calendar is Karkadakam.

Why Karkadakam Is Different

Karkadakam occupies a distinctive place in Kerala’s seasonal calendar because it corresponds with the southwest monsoon period.

For many Malayali households, Karkadakam is associated with traditional practices, devotional observances and seasonal routines.

The calendar transition is therefore more than simply changing the month number: it also marks a recognizable seasonal stage in Kerala.

Guru Purnima – July 18

Guru Purnima falls on Sunday, July 18, 2027.

The supplied calendar lists:

  • Karkadakam 3
  • Purnima
  • Pooradam Nakshatra
  • Guru Purnima
  • Anvadhan
  • Sunrise: 06:12
  • Sunset: 18:45

Guru Purnima is traditionally dedicated to the guru or spiritual teacher. It is observed through respect, prayer, study and remembrance of teachers and spiritual lineages.

The date is also the month’s principal Purnima observance.

Purnima and Anvadhan

The supplied daily sequence shows Purnima on July 18, followed by Krishna Pradhama on July 19.

July 18

  • Karkadakam 3
  • Shukla Purnima
  • Pooradam
  • Guru Purnima
  • Anvadhan

July 19

  • Karkadakam 4
  • Krishna Pradhama
  • Uthradam
  • Ishti

This marks the transition from the waxing lunar phase to Krishna Paksha.

Agastya Arghya – July 24

Agastya Arghya is listed on Saturday, July 24, 2027.

The date corresponds to:

  • Karkadakam 9
  • Krishna Panchami
  • Uthrattathi Nakshatra
  • Sunrise: 06:13
  • Sunset: 18:45

Agastya Arghya is associated with the traditional worship and offering connected with Sage Agastya.

The observance is particularly relevant to calendars that include detailed Hindu Panchang festivals rather than only major public holidays.

Kamika Ekadashi – July 29

Kamika Ekadashi falls on Thursday, July 29, 2027, according to the supplied festival calendar.

The daily sequence gives:

  • Karkadakam 14
  • Krishna Dasami
  • Rohini Nakshatra
  • Sunrise: 06:14
  • Sunset: 18:44
  • Festival listing: Kamika Ekadashi

The festival list identifies July 29 as Kamika Ekadashi. For fasting purposes, readers should check the exact Ekadashi Tithi transition and Parana time for their location.

Gauna and Vaishnava Kamika Ekadashi – July 30

The supplied festival calendar separately lists Gauna Kamika Ekadashi and Vaishnava Kamika Ekadashi on July 30.

This is important because different Vaishnava traditions can use different rules when determining the Ekadashi fasting day.

The daily Panchang supplied for July 30 shows:

  • Karkadakam 15
  • Krishna Dwadashi
  • Makayiram Nakshatra
  • Sunrise: 06:14
  • Sunset: 18:44

Shani Pradosh Vrat – July 31

The month closes with Shani Pradosh Vrat on Saturday, July 31, 2027.

The date is:

  • Karkadakam 16
  • Krishna Trayodashi
  • Thiruvathira Nakshatra
  • Sunrise: 06:14
  • Sunset: 18:43

Because this Pradosh falls on Saturday, it is listed as Shani Pradosh.

The exact Pradosh Kaal depends on local sunset and should be calculated for the reader’s location.

July 2027 Ekadashi Dates

The supplied calendar identifies the following important Ekadashi-related dates:

ObservanceDateMalayalam Month
Devshayani EkadashiJuly 14Mithunam
Kamika EkadashiJuly 29Karkadakam
Gauna Kamika EkadashiJuly 30Karkadakam
Vaishnava Kamika EkadashiJuly 30Karkadakam

The distinction between regular, Gauna and Vaishnava Ekadashi dates should be retained because different traditions can follow different fasting rules.

What Changes After Karkadakam Sankramam?

The most visible calendar change in July is the transition from Mithunam to Karkadakam.

Before July 16, dates are numbered within Mithunam 1202. From July 16, the calendar begins Karkadakam 1202.

This transition is useful for readers who follow traditional Malayalam dates alongside the Gregorian calendar. A date such as July 18 therefore needs to be read as Karkadakam 3, rather than simply as July 18.
