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. | 1:24 PM – 2:45 PM |
|---|---|
Yamagandam?Another avoid-window. Tradition says things begun now don’t finish well, so big starts and journeys wait. | 6:40 AM – 8:01 AM |
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. | 9:22 AM – 10:43 AM |
Auspicious times
Abhijit Muhurtham?The midday power slot around local noon — considered good for almost anything. Not used on Wednesdays. | 11:42 AM – 12:25 PM |
|---|---|
Brahma Muhurtham?The calm window before dawn, prized for study, meditation and yoga. | 4:55 AM – 5:48 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. | 6:40 AM – 8:01 AM Dhanam8:01 AM – 9:22 AM Sugam10:43 AM – 12:04 PM Uthi12:04 PM – 1:24 PM Amirdha4:06 PM – 5:27 PM LaabamGowri Panchangam → |
Five limbs of the day

Nakshatra?The star-zone the Moon is passing through. There are 27; the one at your birth is your birth star. | Vishakha (Visakam) until 9:51 AM then Anuradha (Anusham) |
Yoga?One of 27 combinations of the Sun’s and Moon’s positions, each with its own flavour for the day. | Parigha until 6:56 PM then Shiva |
Karana?Half a tithi. Eleven kinds cycle through the month; Vishti (Bhadra) is the one people avoid. | Bava until 12:58 PM then Balava until 1:22 AM (21 May) then Kaulava |
Moon sign (Rasi)?The zodiac sign (rasi) the Moon is in right now. It moves on every 2¼ days. | Vrischika (Scorpio) all day |

| Lunar month (amanta) | Vaishakha, 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. | Mesha (Aries) all day |

About today’s panchangam for Thembisa
In Thembisa on Thursday, 20 May 2027, the sun rises at 6:40 AM and sets at 5:27 PM. Rahu Kalam runs 1:24 PM – 2:45 PM, Yamagandam 6:40 AM – 8:01 AM and Gulikai Kalam 9:22 AM – 10:43 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 Vishakha (Visakam) nakshatra. The Tamil date is Vaikasi 6, Plavanga year.
