The five limbs
Tithi, vara, nakshatra, yoga, karana
Panchang means “five limbs”. Together they describe the quality of the day for ritual, work, and decision. End times are the exact moments each limb gives way to the next.
Nakshatra
Purva Phalguni
The Moon’s lodge. It colours the mood, the people you meet, and the kind of effort that flows.
Ends at 09:20 pm
Yoga
Shukla
The Sun and Moon together. It tells you whether the day’s energy is smooth or rough.
Ends at 12:58 am
Karana
Gara
Half a tithi. It nudges practical matters: signing, fixing, beginning small things.

Brahma Muhurat
04:34 am to 05:22 am
The quiet ninety-six minutes before sunrise. Use it for prayer, study, and any work that needs a still mind.
Abhijit Muhurat
11:45 am to 12:33 pm
The middle twenty-four minutes of the day. A safe slot for any new beginning, even when the rest of the day looks uncertain.
Windows to avoid
When to wait
Rahu Kaal
01:39 pm to 03:09 pm
Hold off on starting anything important. Routine work is fine.
Yamaganda
06:10 am to 07:40 am
Heavy energy. Not the time to launch, sign, or commit.
Gulika Kalam
09:10 am to 10:40 am
Saturn’s son. Whatever begins here tends to drag, so wait it out.

Local tradition
Panchang traditions in Thiruvananthapuram
Notable temples
Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple is the city's defining shrine. The temple observes the Alpasi Utsavam in Tulam month and the Painkuni Utsavam in Meenam, each running ten days with daily arattu processions to Shankhumukham beach.
Regional festivals
Onam over ten days from Atham to Thiruvonam in Chingam (August-September) is Kerala's harvest festival and Thiruvananthapuram's civic identity.
Daily observance
Kerala follows the Malayalam Kollavarsham calendar with months named in Malayalam (Chingam, Kanni, Tulam); tithi observance uses the broader south Indian amanta convention but is read against the Malayalam month.
