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

Keep new beginnings small on this day.

Bhadra Karanam runs till 5.53 pm; Vyatipata Yogam runs till 9.18 am Tuesday. No part of the day is clear of every caution. If something cannot wait, prefer the printed Nalla Neram and ask your family's jyotishi.

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

Your day: Tamil calendar for Tirunelveli

Observance days as Tamil calendars keep them.

Full panchangam
