The day, hour by hour
Puja
7:14 AM – 7:39 PMAny time in the day — most houses do it in the morning, before the tools are put down.
Times for Columbus, OH in EDT, UTC−4, rounded to the minute, computed by Kalava's engine for this town's own sunrise, sunset and moonrise. How
The Sun enters Kanya today, and the tools rest: the lathe, the chisel, the taxi and the tea-stall's stove are cleaned, given a tilak and put down for the day. It is kept for Vishwakarma, who made the gods' cities and the first plough, by every house that works with its hands.
Because the observance is tied to the solar Kanya Sankranti rather than a lunar tithi, its Gregorian date remains relatively fixed around September 17, though occasional confusion arises between September 16 and 17 depending on the exact time of the Sun's transit.
