This day and the next

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

In Tamil Nadu, Deepavali is on this day.

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

Full panchangam

For rituals and muhurtham, computed for Sacramento 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.
