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.
