Hemanta (season)
Early winter in the Hindu calendar
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hemanta (Sanskrit: हेमन्त, romanized: Hemanta) is the season of early winter in the Hindu calendar.[1][2] It is one of the six seasons (ritu), each lasting two months, the others being Vasanta (spring), Grishma (summer), Sharada (autumn), Varsha (monsoon), and Shishira (winter).[3]
It falls in the two months of Agrahayana and Pausha of the Hindu calendar, or November and December of the Gregorian calendar.[4] It is preceded by Sharada, the autumn season, and followed by Shishira, the winter season.
