Ekadasi is a Sanskrit word, which means 'the eleventh'. It refers to the eleventh day of a fortnight belonging to a lunar month. There are two fortnights in a lunar month—the bright and the dark. So, Ekadasi occurs twice in a month, in the bright fortnight and the dark fortnight.

Bhakti Yoga Dictionary on Ekadasi Ekadasi - is the eleventh day of the waxing or waning moon. Suddha Ekadasi means that the whole eleventh day of the moon elapses during the period between one sunrise and the next. Viddha Ekadasi means that the eleventh day of the moon begins on one solar day (sunrise to sunrise) and finishes on the next solar day, that is after sunrise on the next day.

 |  |  | Ekadasi: Encyclopedia II - Ekadasi - MindHow, is Ekadasi related to the movement of moon and mind?

The mind moves through these Chakras. When this takes place consciously, it is called Yoga. When the moon waxes or wanes, the mind is vehemently influenced.
