What matters for a griha pravesh
- • A waxing Moon (Shukla paksha) and a fixed or gentle nakshatra suit house-entry best
- • Avoid Tuesday and Saturday for a first entry where possible
- • Enter within the Abhijit Muhurat when you can
- • Traditionally avoided in the north: Kharmas (Sun in Sagittarius or Pisces), Chaturmas (Ashadha Shukla 11 to Kartika Shukla 11) (a regional convention)
