Shastra's reading

For anything new, 5.52 am to 12.19 pm is the best of the day.

Bhadra Karanam runs till 11.14 pm.

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

This day and the next

Pournami, the full moon.

Thai Poosam, Murugan's day; kavadi.

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

Full panchangam

For rituals and muhurtham, computed for Suva 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.
