This day and the next

Thai Poosam, Murugan's day; kavadi.

Observance days as Tamil calendars keep them, set by Birmingham's own sunrise, sunset and moonrise.

Full panchangam

For rituals and muhurtham, computed for Birmingham by modern astronomical calculation (Drik, Lahiri). A caution's start is rounded down and its end up; a good window's start up and its end down. Underlined words open their meaning.
