Tithi and nakshatram computed for Rameswaram. Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam, Kuligai, Nalla Neram and Soolam as Tamil calendars print them. Minute times are under Your day.

Shastra's reading

Keep new beginnings small on this day.

Bhadra Karanam runs till 8.17 am; Shoola Yogam runs till 3.51 am Saturday. No part of the day is clear of every caution. If something cannot wait, prefer the printed Nalla Neram and ask your family's jyotishi.

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

Ekadasi, a fasting day in many families.

Observance days as Tamil calendars keep them.

Full panchangam

For rituals and muhurtham, computed for Rameswaram 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.
