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

Shastra's reading

For anything new, 3.33 pm to sunset is the best of the day, with the Nalla Neram of 4.45–5.45 pm inside it.

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


No kolam on this sheet: it is Amavasai.

Amavasai, the new moon; tarpanam for ancestors in many families.

Observance days as Tamil calendars keep them.

Full panchangam

For rituals and muhurtham, computed for Tirunelveli 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.
