Shastra's reading

For anything new, 5.39 am to 12.06 pm is the best of the day.

Vyaghata Yogam runs till 5.39 am.

This is Aadi, 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.

Shastra

Your day

Computed for Ayodhya, to the minute. Use these minutes when fixing a muhurtham.

Monday 10 August: Pradosham.

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

Full panchangam

For rituals and muhurtham, computed for Ayodhya 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.
