Times to avoid

Rahu Kalam

About 90 minutes each day when people avoid starting anything new — signing, buying, setting out. Work already in progress is fine.

10:48 AM – 12:20 PM
Yamagandam

Another avoid-window. Tradition says things begun now don’t finish well, so big starts and journeys wait.

3:25 PM – 4:58 PM
Gulikai Kalam

Whatever you do in Gulikai is said to repeat. Skipped for things you never want again (loans, funerals); some use it for things they do.

7:43 AM – 9:15 AM

Auspicious times

Abhijit Muhurtham

The midday power slot around local noon — considered good for almost anything. Not used on Wednesdays.

11:55 AM – 12:45 PM
Brahma Muhurtham

The calm window before dawn, prized for study, meditation and yoga.

4:37 AM – 5:23 AM
Nalla Neram

The Tamil way to pick a good time: day and night are each cut into 8 slots, and every slot has a name that says whether it’s good or not.

Five limbs of the day

DayFriday
Tithi

The lunar day. Each time the Moon pulls 12° further from the Sun a new tithi begins — 30 in a lunar month, so it can change at any hour.

Pournami until 9:48 AM
then Krishna Prathama
Nakshatra

The star-zone the Moon is passing through. There are 27; the one at your birth is your birth star.

Shatabhisha (Sathayam) until 3:13 AM (29 Aug)
then Purva Bhadrapada (Poorattathi)
Yoga

One of 27 combinations of the Sun’s and Moon’s positions, each with its own flavour for the day.

Atiganda until 7:27 AM
then Sukarma
Karana

Half a tithi. Eleven kinds cycle through the month; Vishti (Bhadra) is the one people avoid.

Bava until 9:48 AM
then Balava until 9:56 PM
then Kaulava
Moon sign (Rasi)

The zodiac sign (rasi) the Moon is in right now. It moves on every 2¼ days.

Kumbha (Aquarius) all day
Sun signSimha (Leo)
Lunar month (amanta)Shravana, Shukla Paksha
Chandrashtama for

If this is your moon sign, the Moon is in your 8th house — tradition says keep it low-key and put off big decisions.

Kataka (Cancer) all day

Nalla Neram – Gowri Panchangam

The Tamil way to pick a good time: day and night are each cut into 8 slots, and every slot has a name that says whether it’s good or not.

About today’s panchangam for Sivakasi

In Sivakasi on Friday, 28 August 2026, the sun rises at 6:10 AM and sets at 6:30 PM. Rahu Kalam runs 10:48 AM – 12:20 PM, Yamagandam 3:25 PM – 4:58 PM and Gulikai Kalam 7:43 AM – 9:15 AM. These periods, like the good-time slots, are found by dividing the time between local sunrise and sunset into eight equal parts — which is why they shift from city to city and day to day, and why a fixed “7:30 to 9:00” chart is only an approximation.

The day begins at sunrise with Pournami tithi and Shatabhisha (Sathayam) nakshatra. The Tamil date is Aavani 12, Parabhava year.
