Muhurat
Picking a good day. Tell any of these tools where you are and when you're looking, and it lists the days that qualify — with the reasoning shown in plain words, so you can check it or take it to someone who can.
A short lucky window around midday, good for starting almost anything. Today's exact times for your city — and the two occasions it does not apply.
OpenWedding dates that clear the traditional calendar — the right stars, and clear of the months in which weddings are not held.
OpenDays to move into a new home and hold the house-warming.
OpenDays to sign, register or take possession — Thursdays and Fridays lead, the days of Jupiter and Venus.
OpenDays to buy a car or a bike, or to take delivery of one you have already bought.
OpenHow to use these: each list narrows a year down to a shortlist of days. It works from the calendar alone — no birth chart is read, so the final choice, and the hour within the day, still belongs to your family astrologer or priest. A printed almanac checks the hours inside each day and allows a few more stars, so its list will be longer than these.
What a muhurat is
A muhurat is a chosen moment — the practice of picking when to do something rather than leaving it to whenever you are free. Weddings, moving into a house, signing for property, buying a vehicle: the tradition has rules for each, and they are not the same rules.
The tools here are filters. They take a range of dates and hand back the ones that clear a stated set of checks, with the checks shown.
Reading the table above
Each page lists the days it found, then the rules it applied, then what it does not judge. That last section is the one worth reading first if you are about to act on a date.
The context strip at the top shows the seasonal blocks overlapping your range — Chaturmas, and any leap month. Those are why a list can come back much shorter than you expected, or empty.
Abhijit is different from the other four: it is a window inside a single day rather than a list of days, so it takes a date and gives you a time.

Before you rely on this
- Open the individual page for the rules that apply. Each activity has its own list of what it checks and what it does not, and they differ.
- None of these read a birth chart. That is the largest limitation and it is the same one on every page in this section.
