Computed for Muscat, in Gulf time (GST). 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.

Shoola Yogam runs till 1.22 pm; Ganda Yogam runs till 11.48 am 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.

Saturday 26 September: Pournami.

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