into 1998 What sets the 1997 Malayalam calendar apart from a standard almanac is the daily listing of Nakshatra (asterism or lunar mansion). The Moon travels through one of the 27 Nakshatras each day (approx. 13°20′ of the ecliptic). For Keralites, a person’s Janma Nakshatra (birth star) determines not just their name’s starting letter, but also auspicious timings for weddings ( muhurtham ), housewarmings ( gruhapravesham ), and even agricultural planting. | Festival | 1997 Date | Determining Nakshatra
