Shastra's reading

For anything new, 3.10 pm to sunset is the best of the day.

This is Purattasi, 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 Tirunelveli

Computed for Tirunelveli, to the minute. Use the printed times on the sheet for daily life; use these minutes when fixing a muhurtham. Where they differ, the printed time is shown in brackets.

This day and the next

No major observance on this day.

Amavasai runs till 8.06 am; the Mahalaya Amavasai day here is on Wednesday 29 September.

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.
