Computed for Kollam. 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

For anything new, 3.17 pm to sunset is the best of the day.

Bhadra Karanam runs till 10.48 am; Ganda Yogam runs till 1.18 pm.

This is Purattasi, when many families do not hold weddings or griha pravesam. Mahalaya Paksham begins the next day, or on this day in some families. Daily archanai and worship need no muhurtham. For anything important, your family's jyotishi comes first.

No kolam on this sheet: it is a sraddham day.

Your day

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

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

Full panchangam

For rituals and muhurtham, computed for Kollam 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.
