Computed for Detroit, in US Eastern time (EDT). Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam and Kuligai from its own sunrise; Gowri Nalla Neram from its sunrise and sunset. Minute times are under Your day.

Shastra's reading

Keep new beginnings small on this day.

Bhadra Karanam runs till 10.00 am; Vyatipata Yogam runs all day, till 9.12 pm. No part of the day is clear of every caution. If something cannot wait, prefer a good part of the Gowri Panchangam and ask your family's jyotishi.

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