Panchangam for George Town (Penang)

2026-10-01 · George Town (Penang), Malaysia · Thursday

06:38:39 — One of the marked periods is running now. These are times to carry on with what you are doing rather than start something new. Each one's end time is below.

Dhanam — wealth until 07:28:17

Three of the periods above are the same for everyone in this city. Chandrashtama is not — it needs your star, comes round about once every twenty-seven days, and ends at whatever hour the Moon changes sign.

Nalla neram — the gowri panchangam

Eight parts of daylight and eight of night, five of them favourable. This is the table families read when they are choosing an hour rather than asking about this minute.

Varjyam

Four ghatikas of each nakshatra are set aside as varjyam, at a set point for each of the twenty-seven. Do not begin anything new in it. A ghatika is a sixtieth of the nakshatra, not a fixed clock span, so the window lasts about an hour and a half and moves with the Moon.

Rohini
23:29 – 00:58
continues past midnight

Amrita kalam

Amrita kalam is the opposite: the best stretch of the day for beginning something. It is measured the same way, from the same nakshatra.

Rohini
03:58 – 05:27

Computed from NASA JPL DE440 with the Lahiri ayanamsa — a Thirukanitha reckoning. Sunrise uses the apparent horizon (−0°50′), the convention Indian panchangams publish, so these timings should match a Thirukanitha almanac to within a minute. If yours is a Vakya panchangam the tithi and nakshatra end times will differ, sometimes by hours rather than minutes. Neither is a mistake: they are two traditions, and this is the one we compute.
