Guest guest Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Dear friends, BEST WISHES FOR UTTARAYANA-CUM-PONGAL-CUM-PAURANIC MAKAR SANKRANTI! Sun was having maximum south declination at 12hrs. 3mts 44 seconds UT on Sunday, December21, 2008. It will start turning North from that point. That is the Uttarayana, the turning point of sun after remaining stationary for a billionth of a second! That is known as Winter Solstice and it has been extolled in all the shastras as Incarnation of Vishnu. That is the time of Makara Ingress as per all the Puranas and hence the real Pongal. There will be no other Makar Sankranti for one year. Hence no Pongal either! Best wishes once again for such a wonderful phenomenon.
