chandra grahanam

[soundararajan50]

Dear Swamin,
It is understood from the earlier posts that Yajur upakarma and Gayathri jabam falls on 7th and 8th August respectively.
Grahana tharpanam on 7th August should be done at what time please?

on 7-8-2017 monday night grahanam starts at 10-53 p.m. and ends at 12-48 a.m. Always you have to do tharpanam at the time for lunar eclipse and at the begining for solar eclipse. so you have to do tharpanam at 12-15 a.m. yajur upakarma on 6-9-2017 and gayathri japam on 8-8-2017.

Those who have born on rohini, hastham, thiruvonam avittam, uththiraadam, must do shanthi and at the time of grahanam they must chant" yo sow vajra dharo devaha aadhithyaanaam prabhur matha sahasra nayanaha chandra graha peetaam vyapohathu."
