>From what I have been told, the pAncharAtra SrI rAma navami is

celebrated on the day of shukla paksha navami in the month of

Sri RAma was born on the day of navami in the month of Chaitra under

the auspices of punarvasu nakshatram (reference to Aditi above as

the presiding deity of punarvasu). Interesting point to note above:

Sri Rama was born after a pregnancy term of twelve months (or six

two-month seasons).
