Gowri Nalla Neram

morning 10.23–11.54night 7.33–8.59

Computed for Suva, in Fiji time. 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, 10.23 am to 11.54 am is the best of the day.

Bhadra Karanam runs till 8.39 am.

This is Purattasi, when many families do not hold weddings or griha pravesam. It is Mahalaya Paksham, the fortnight for ancestors. 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 Suva, to the minute. Use these minutes when fixing a muhurtham.
