Birthdate clarification, simple panjagam question

Not open for further replies.
Namaskarams!

I am trying to decide when to do the ayusahomam and srardham.

child born on Chitra masam in Pusa nakshtram. Our sastrigal in Houston, USA (where we are) says to celebrate on the same day as rama navami in April. But he follows telegu panchanjagam. I looked in mypanjang.com and it also says on the 4th or 5th April. However, I know chitra masam starts only on April 14 per tamil calendar.

Which is the date to do this?

Also, my fathers devasam is on shukla shasti thithi in chitra masam. I have the same confusion on the date. Is it 1st of April or next date in Chitra masam in May.

Sastrigal says "Chaitre masam" in mypanjang is Chitra masam in Tamil, but the 14th April for chitra masam is causing confusion.

thank you.

Ugadi is Telugu NY. It is also for Kannada and Maharashtra. They follow lunar cycle. But actually the month starts when Sun enters Mesha. Watch the Sun's position marked by astro when casting horoscopes. Universally the Sun's cycle is same according of course to time zone. Tamil Chitra month will be around 13th/14th. The 1st Solar month is Chitra but the lunar month Chitra corresponds to the constellation.
 
Have dutifully checked with Manonmani Vilas yellow "paambu" Shuddha Vaakkiya panchangam, Vaasan pink Thirukkanitha panchaangam, Yaazhppaana E Vengadesha Iyer's Vaakkiya Panchaangam, all for Hemavilambi Varusham 2017-2018, and Giri Trading's "Gita Calendar 2017" plus Maathrubhoomi calendar for kollam-aandu 1192 (corresponding to Hemavilambi varusham).

Have also done my own independent research, for verification.

All sources consulted agree that Monday 1 May 2017 is the correct date for your father's shraaddham on chithra maasam, shuklapaksha shashti tithi. (Avoid 12 noon to 1.30 pm: Yama kandam.) Sree Raama Navami is on Wednesday 5 April 2017 being the 23rd day of Panguni. In the latter case, both the month and the thithi are inconsistent with your father's death anniversary. That date is accordingly unsuitable.

Choices for your child's aayushya-homam (and for jaatha-karmam, naama-karanam, anna-praashanam?), based on Chitra maasam, Pushya nakshathram, are as follows:-

(1) Gita Calendar: Between 12.19 pm Tuesday 2 May 2017 and 10.19 am Wednesday 3 May 2017.

(2) Paambu panchaangam: Between 12.26 pm Tuesday 2 May 2017 and 11.14 am Wed 3 May 2017.

(3) Vaasan Panchaangam: Between 7.15 pm Tuesday 2 May 2017 and 7.14 pm Wednesday 3 May 2017.

(4) Maathrubhoomi Calendar: Between 6.27 pm Tuesday 2 May and 5.19 pm Wednesday 3 May 2017.

(5) Yaazhppaanam Vaakkiya Panchangam: Between 6.27 pm Tuesday 2 May and 5.19 pm Wed 3 May 2017.

My own suggestion would be choice No. (2) above, i.e. Wednesday 3 May morning, as on that day Raahu kaalam is only frfom 4.30 pm to 6.00 pm. Moreover, that panchaangam is the one followed by the local Anthanaar Sangham (Brahmana Sabha) of which I am a member.

If you have any further queries, please let me know. Or raise them in this website.

Namaskaarams.
