It falls on Amavasya (Ammavaasa),  the new moon night, that ends the month of Ashwina  (Ashvin/Aasho/Aswayuja) and begins the month of Kartika. The 5 day  festival begins on the 13th day in the dark half of Ashwin and ends on  the 2nd day in the bright half of Kartika. As the calculation is  primarily based on the moon, the day of Diwali Festival varies in the  Gregorian Calendar between the 13th October and 14th November every  year. It can also differ by 1 day, depending on the location in the  world. </blockquote>
