Shastra's reading

Keep new beginnings small on this day.

Bhadra Karanam runs till 3.45 pm; Shoola Yogam runs till 9.31 am Thursday. 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.

Mahalaya Paksham begins the next day, or on this day in some families. Daily archanai and worship need no muhurtham. For anything important, your family's jyotishi comes first.


No kolam on this sheet: it is a sraddham day.

Thursday 16 September: Prathamai Sraddham, as Mahalaya Paksham begins; some families count it from this day.

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.
