This was a very insightful read! I always wondered why the dates for Holi seemed to shift slightly each year, and your explanation of the lunar 'tithis' and the 29.5-day cycle makes perfect sense. Even if the excitement feels lower due to the calendar shift, the meaning of the festival remains as strong as ever. Unfortunately, the bug causing the images not to display is annoying.
