About
Vasant Panchami is the Panchami, the fifth day, of the waxing moon in Magha, and marks the coming of spring (vasanta). It is widely kept as Saraswati Puja, the worship of the goddess of learning, music and the arts, and many children write their first letters on this day. Yellow, the colour of the mustard fields in flower, is worn and offered. It is kept on the day the Panchami holds in the forenoon (purvahna).

Questions
Which day is Vasant Panchami this year?
It is kept on the day the Panchami holds in the forenoon (purvahna) in your city, the date shown at the top of this page. When the Panchami holds in both forenoons, or in neither, calendars can differ by a day.
Why yellow?
Yellow is the colour of the mustard fields in flower at this time and of spring; many wear it and offer yellow flowers and sweets. It is a custom, not a rule of the texts.
Is it a day to begin learning?
Many families take it as such, and children's first letters are often written today; it is a custom kept widely, especially in the east and the south.
