Green-toned days are favourable, amber are mixed, red are best avoided. Hover or tap a day for its tithi, nakshatra and what counts against it.

  • Favourable: Panchang factors support this day for a griha pravesh.
  • Mixed: Some factors support this day for a griha pravesh, others don't — usable, but not the best choice.
  • Avoid: Traditionally avoided for a griha pravesh — a seasonal bar or unfavourable factor applies.

Favourable days

No fully favourable day this month. The mixed days have only soft issues (for example a less ideal nakshatra or weekday).

Why the other days miss out

On the 30 other days that are not favourable, the reasons that come up most are the nakshatra (18 days), paksha (16 days) and the weekday (12 days).

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 south: Kharmas (Sun in Sagittarius, or in Cancer for Aadi) (a regional convention)
