Why some Indian festivals fall on different dates every year?

As this Indic calendar shows, the bharathiya tradition has evolved a luni-solar calendar. We have lunar based, solar based and luni-solar based timekeeping for festivals. For example, Deepavali or Diwali or Naraka Chaturdasi is celebrated on the Chaturdasi that falls on the Krishna Paksha of Aippasi (Ashweja or Ashwina) Masa. Where as Makara Sankranti or Pongal only looks at the sun's entry into Makara Rasi.

What is vara? Vara or Vāsara refers to the weekdays in Sanskrit. The naming of the Vara is based on the presiding graha of the day's first hora or hour.

A weekday of the Indic calendar has been symmetrically divided into 60 ghatika (= 24 hours), each ghatika is divided into 60 pala (= 24 minutes), each pala is subdivided into 60 vipala (= 24 seconds), and so on. A muhurta constitutes 48 minutes or 2 pala.
