Shastra's reading

Keep new beginnings small on this day.

Vyatipata Yogam runs all day, till 9.17 pm; Bhadra Karanam runs till 11.55 pm. No part of the day is clear of every caution. If something cannot wait, prefer a good part of the Gowri Panchangam and ask your family's jyotishi.

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