Hindu Solar Months

Solar months follow the Sun through twelve rashis — Mesha, Vrishabha, Mithuna, Karka, Simha, Kanya, Tula, Vrischika, Dhanu, Makara, Kumbha, and Meena. Tamil (Chithirai to Panguni) and Kerala (Medam to Meenam) names are the same twelve months. Aadi / Karkidakam and Purattasi are when many families pause weddings; Margazhi is Dhanurmasa. Rahu Kaal and Choghadiya still follow weekday plus local sunrise.
