Devshayani Ekadashi on 14 July 2027 · Kamika Ekadashi on 29 July 2027
Two Ekadashi dates fall in July 2027, 15 days apart. Their tithis run 25h and 21.6h, which is why they are not evenly spaced.
14 July 2027
Parana — when the fast may be broken
5:34 AM – 8:20 AM
15 July 2027 · 2 hours 45 minutes wide
Opens at sunrise and closes at the end of Pratahkala, the first fifth of the daylight hours. Dwadashi itself runs until 15 Jul, 2:41 PM.
29 July 2027
Parana — when the fast may be broken
1:49 PM – 4:31 PM
30 July 2027 · 2 hours 42 minutes wide
Hari Vasara — the first quarter of Dwadashi, during which parana is forbidden — runs until 10:30 AM, past the end of Pratahkala. Parana therefore moves to Aparahna, the fourth fifth of the daylight hours, since it is not done at midday. Dwadashi itself runs until 31 Jul, 2:19 AM.
This tithi touches no sunrise at all
It begins at 29 Jul, 7:35 AM and ends at 30 Jul, 5:14 AM, slipping between two sunrises entirely. A tithi like this is kshaya — it exists, but no day belongs to it by the usual rule. The vrat is kept on the day it prevails through, which is the date above. The gauna observance falls on 30 July 2027.
Devshayani Ekadashi and Kamika Ekadashi run 25 hours and 21.6 hours, against a range of 21.2 to 26.7 hours across the twelve months around it — shortest on 17 February 2027, longest on 4 March 2027. The parana window here is 2 hours 45 minutes, where the year's narrowest is 1 hour 39 minutes and its widest 2 hours 47 minutes.

6 others: Guru Pradosh Vrat on 1 July, Ashadha Amavasya on 4 July, Guru Pradosh Vrat on 15 July, Ashadha Purnima on 18 July, Gajanana Sankashti Chaturthi on 22 July, Shani Pradosh Vrat on 31 July.
Devshayani Ekadashi runs 25 hours and Kamika Ekadashi runs 21.6 hours. Across the twelve months around this one, Ekadashi ranged from 21.2 hours on 17 February 2027 to 26.7 hours on 4 March 2027. The variation comes from the Moon's changing speed, which is also why these dates cannot be counted off a fixed cycle.
Because its tithi touches no sunrise at all: it runs 29 Jul, 7:35 AM to 30 Jul, 5:14 AM, slipping between two sunrises. The vrat is kept on the day it prevails through, 29 July 2027, and the gauna observance falls on 30 July 2027.
Your kundli decides which of these tithis actually carry weight for you, and which are simply days in the calendar.
