Shastra's reading

For anything new, 11.13 am to 1.21 pm is the best of the day.

Bhadra Karanam runs till 11.13 am; Vyatipata Yogam runs till 12.20 pm Friday.

This is Margazhi, 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.

Full panchangam
