The table shows for each day when the planet Brihaspati (Guru) is ruling. The hours shown in the table are hours after sunrise. Which means on Ravi Var (Sunday) if the sun rise Katikati, Bay of Plenty - New Zealand is at 6 AM LST, then the first available hour is the 6th hour after sun rise - or to be precise between 11 AM to 12 AM. The next lagna is on the 13th hour and the last lagna on Ravi var is on 20 th hour after sun rise. To clarify further, if the sun rise is at 6 AM then the 1 st hour is between 6 AM and 7 AM, the 2 nd hour is between 7 to 8 AM and so on.

Other auspicous times to perform a vivaha are Godhuli (the time of the cow dust when Krishna came back with the cows - usually about 4pm) or at dusk (check for Rahu kalam and Yama ghantams).

For the correct time for all days consult the table. Basically one should take care to see that the main ceremony when marriage vows are taken is completed within the selected lagna. Generally the tithi of Purnima or the day there is a full moon is considered auspicous for all activities.
