Pranam Believer ji
Nice observant, yes you are absolutely correct this is the only religious day that does not follow Hindu lunar calendar that is because it is a solar event, it invariably falls on the 14th Jan sometimes it could be 15th when the winter equinox is calculated for the 22nd dec.
Now the question off Uttrayan (northward journey) for what ever reason is fixed in the middle of Jan by Hindus must have a logical reason. Why ? I do not know do I question it ? No way.
Jai Shree Krishna
Rig Veda list only 33 devas, they are all propitiated, worthy off our worship, all other names of gods are derivative from this 33 originals,
Bhagvat Gita; Shree Krishna says Chapter 3.11 devan bhavayatanena te deva bhavayantu vah parasparam bhavayantah sreyah param avapsyatha Chapter 17.4 yajante sattvika devan yaksa-raksamsi rajasah pretan bhuta-ganams canye yajante tamasa janah
The world disappears in him. He is the peaceful, the good, the one without a second.
