Gandmool is the time the Moon takes to cross the three seams of the zodiac where a water sign gives way to a fire sign: Ashlesha into Magha, Jyeshtha into Moola, and Revati into Ashwini. Each crossing lasts about two days and comes round three times a month. Families watch these spells mostly for births, since tradition prescribes a Gandmool shanti for a child born in one. Below is every spell of the year for New Delhi, from its first minute to its last.
