Makar Sankranti (also known as Makara Sankranti), according to the Hindu calendar, marks the transition of the sun into the zodiacal sign of Makara (Capricorn) on its celestial path,[2] which is the first change in the zodiac after the winter solstice.[3]
The festival is celebrated in various parts of the Indian subcontinent
to observe the day which marks the shift of the sun into
ever-lengthening days. The festival is a seasonal observance as well as a
religious celebration. Makara Sankranti is a solar event making it one
of the few Hindu
festivals which fall on the same date in local calendars every year: 14
January, with some exceptions when the festival is celebrated on 15
January.[4]
Although the festival has been celebrated on January 14 for the last
100 years, it will from 2019 be marked on January 15 or January 16,
except in 2021.
