Phalguna
Phalguna (Sanskrit: फाल्गुन Phālguna) is a month of the Hindu calendar. In India's national civil calendar, Phalguna is twelfth month of the year, and corresponds with February/March in the Gregorian calendar.In Luni-Solar calendars, Phalgun may begin on either the new moon or the full moon around the same time of year, and is the twelfth month of the year. However, in Gujarat, Kartika is the first month of the year, and so Phalguna follows as the fifth month for Gujaratis. The holidays of Holi (15 Phalguna in Amanta System/30 Phalguna In Purnimanta System) and Maha Shivaratri (14th Phalguna in Purnimanta System) are observed in this month. In the Vikram Sambat calendar, Phalgun is the eleventh month of the year. In solar religious calendars, Phalguna begins with the Sun's entry into Aquarius, and is the twelfth month of the solar year. In the Vaishnava calendar, Govinda governs this month. Gaura-purnima celebrating the birth of the saint Chaitanya Mahaprabhu (1486–1534) also falls in this month.
