UththaraayaNam is the northward movement of the sun from the Tropic of Capricorn. It now takes place on 21st December. There was once a time, when it took place on 25th December. And before that, there was a time when it took place on 14th January. 1st of Thai month falls on that day now. Lets see....... When was the time, when it would have fallen on the 1st of Chiththirai?
