Tithi and nakshatram computed for Rameswaram. Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam, Kuligai, Nalla Neram and Soolam as Tamil calendars print them. Minute times are under Your day.

Shastra's reading

For anything new, 6.04 am to 11.50 am is the best of the day, with the Nalla Neram of 7.45–8.45 am inside it.

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

Shastra

Your day

Computed for Rameswaram, to the minute. Use the printed times on the sheet for daily life; use these minutes when fixing a muhurtham. Where they differ, the printed time is shown in brackets.

Deepavali, the Naraka Chaturdasi morning; the oil bath before sunrise.

Amavasai, the new moon; tarpanam for ancestors in many families.

Observance days as Tamil calendars keep them.

Full panchangam
