Rishi Panchami is Bhadra Shukla Panchami, the day that closes Teej. Women take a ritual bath and worship the Sapta Rishi, the seven sages, asking to be cleansed of any fault committed without knowing. The day is kept by the tithi that holds midday.
How families keep it
Women bathe with 365 stalks of datiwan, then worship the seven sages with a pandit and eat a simple meal.

Each date is the day Nepal keeps the festival. Nepal publishes its patro one year at a time, so a date further ahead can move by a day when that year's patro comes out. For a ceremony, Pandit Ji confirms the day and the muhurta.
