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 wedding.
• Mixed: Some factors support this day for a wedding, others don't — usable, but not the best choice.
• Avoid: Traditionally avoided for a wedding — 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 31 other days that are not favourable, the reasons that come up most are the nakshatra (19 days), the tithi (18 days) and the weekday (13 days).

North India compared with South India

North India has 0 favourable and 0 mixed days this month; South India has 1 favourable and 8 mixed. No date is favourable in both regions. Favourable only in South India: 1 October. Chaturmas is applied in North India but not in South India.

• • Prefer the classical marriage nakshatras: Rohini, Mrigashira, Magha, Uttara Phalguni, Hasta, Swati, Anuradha, Mula, Uttara Ashadha, Uttara Bhadrapada, Revati
• • Avoid Rahu Kaal and Bhadra (Vishti karana)
• • Traditionally avoided in the north: Kharmas (Sun in Sagittarius or Pisces), Chaturmas (Ashadha Shukla 11 to Kartika Shukla 11), Jupiter or Venus combust (a regional convention)
