Shastra's reading

Keep new beginnings small on this day.

Shoola Yogam runs till 2.52 pm; Ganda Yogam runs till 1.18 pm Saturday. 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.

This is Purattasi, 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 Mangaluru, to the minute. Use these minutes when fixing a muhurtham.

No major observance on this day.

Saturday 26 September: Pournami.

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

Full panchangam

For rituals and muhurtham, computed for Mangaluru 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.
