Kartik is the eighth
month of the lunar year, and it normally falls between October and November,
according to the lunar calendar, which is used to determine most Hindu
religious events.
Kartik falls during the harvest season in northern India,
when the weather is favorable.
Kartik Purnima, Rambha Ekadashi, Narak Chaturdashi, Diwali,
Govardhan Puja (Annakut), Devotthayan Ekadashi, Tulsi Vivah, and Kartik Purnima
are among the most ritually significant months of the year.
