Worked out from the sun’s position (Thirukanitha, as most Tamil daily calendars). Around the day a month changes, a Vakya panchangam can show one day different, so for a wedding invitation check it with your family’s panchangam.
How to use it
- Choose the date of the function.
- Copy the Tamil line (or the English letters) into your invitation.
- Near a month change, check it with your panchangam.
Questions
- How is it worked out?
- A Tamil month starts when the sun enters a new sign of the zodiac (Thirukanitha method, Lahiri ayanamsa). If that happens before sunset, the month starts that day; otherwise the next day. The year name follows the 60-year cycle from Chithirai 1.
- Why might my calendar show a different date?
- Calendars that follow the older Vakya method can differ by one day around the day a month changes. Every other day matches.
- Are my files uploaded?
- No. This tool runs entirely in your browser, so your files and text never leave your device. It works without an account.
