About Gowri Panchangam

What is Gowri Panchangam?
Gowri Panchangam (கௌரி பஞ்சாங்கம்) is the Tamil equivalent of Choghadiya. It divides the day and night each into 8 equal time slots based on local sunrise and sunset. Each slot is named Amirtham, Shubam, Labham, Charam, Utbavam, Rogam, or Kalam, and is used to choose auspicious times for important activities.
Which is the most auspicious Gowri slot?
Amirtham (அமிர்தம்) is the most auspicious Gowri slot, ruled by the Moon. It is ideal for all important activities including business, travel, marriage, and new beginnings. Shubam (சுபம்) and Labham (லாபம்) are also auspicious.
What is Amirtham in Gowri Panchangam?
Amirtham means "nectar" in Tamil. It is the most auspicious slot in Gowri Panchangam, equivalent to Amrit Choghadiya in North Indian tradition. Activities started during Amirtham are believed to be blessed with success and longevity.
What is Rahu Kalam in Tamil Panchangam?
Rahu Kalam (ராகு காலம்) is a daily inauspicious period of approximately 90 minutes, ruled by the shadow planet Rahu. Starting new ventures or auspicious activities during this time is traditionally avoided in Tamil tradition.
What is Yamagandam?
Yamagandam (யமகண்டம்) is another inauspicious period in Tamil Panchangam, associated with Yama (the god of death). Like Rahu Kalam, it is avoided for starting new activities. Its timing shifts each day depending on the weekday.
What is Kuligai?
Kuligai (குளிகை காலம்) is the third inauspicious period in Tamil Panchangam, associated with Saturn (Sani). It is considered mildly inauspicious and is also avoided for beginning important work.
How is Gowri Panchangam calculated?
The day from sunrise to sunset is divided into 8 equal parts. The type of each slot (Amirtham, Shubam etc.) follows a fixed sequence that depends on the day of the week. Night Gowri similarly divides sunset to next sunrise into 8 slots. The sequence follows traditional Tamil Panchangam rules.
