Computed for Ranchi. Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam and Kuligai from its own sunrise; Gowri Nalla Neram from its sunrise and sunset. Minute times are under Your day.

Shastra's reading

Keep new beginnings small on this day.

Vaidhriti Yogam runs all day, till 8.39 pm; Bhadra Karanam runs till 3.01 am Friday. 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.

This is Aadi, when many families do not hold weddings or griha pravesam. Daily archanai and worship need no muhurtham. For anything important, your family's jyotishi comes first.

Your day: Tamil calendar for Ranchi

This day and the next

Ekadasi, a fasting day in many families.

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

Full panchangam

For rituals and muhurtham, computed for Ranchi 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.
