Shastra's reading

For anything new, 5.51 am to 11.21 am is the best of the day, with the Nalla Neram of 7.45–8.45 am inside it.

Vyatipata Yogam runs till 10.32 am Monday; Bhadra Karanam runs till 3.26 am Monday.

Daily archanai and worship need no muhurtham. For anything important, your family's jyotishi comes first.
