* Falls in Holashtak — many North Indian families avoid these days; the window itself is astronomically valid.
How these dates are chosen
A date qualifies when the Moon occupies one of the classical griha-pravesh nakshatras (Rohini, Mrigashira, Uttara Phalguni, Chitra, Anuradha, Uttara Ashadha, Uttara Bhadrapada, Revati) while a favourable tithi runs — that overlap is the window shown. Dates inside Kharmas, Venus/Jupiter combustion, Chaturmas, Pitru Paksha or a leap month are excluded. Positions come from the Swiss Ephemeris; the season structure matches leading published panchang lists.
Vivah muhurat — frequently asked questions
How many griha pravesh muhurat dates are there in 2026?
There are 53 shubh griha pravesh dates in 2026 for the New Delhi reference — see the month-wise list with exact windows, nakshatra and tithi above.
When do weddings resume after the 2026 monsoon break?
Chaturmas runs from Devshayani Ekadashi (Saturday, July 25) to Devuthani Ekadashi (Friday, November 20); the wedding season resumes on Saturday, November 21.
Why are there no marriage dates in mid-December and mid-January?
That is Kharmas (Malamas): the Sun transits sidereal Dhanu from mid-December to Makar Sankranti in mid-January, and auspicious beginnings like vivah are traditionally paused. A similar pause occurs in Meena (mid-March to mid-April).
Choosing an auspicious muhurta
A muhurta is an electional window chosen to begin something important under supportive skies. The classical method weighs the panchang — tithi, vaar, nakshatra, yoga and karana — together with the ascendant of the moment and rules specific to the activity, so a good marriage muhurta differs from a good time to start a business or buy a vehicle.
Strong muhurtas place benefic planets well, keep the Moon and lagna unafflicted, and avoid inauspicious combinations like Rahu Kaal and the wrong tithis. This finder surfaces the best upcoming windows for common purposes so you can plan around them with confidence.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a time auspicious?
A favourable combination of tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and weekday, a clean ascendant, and well-placed benefics — while avoiding malefic windows such as Rahu Kaal.
What is Rahu Kaal?
Rahu Kaal is an inauspicious window of about 90 minutes each day, traditionally avoided for starting important new work.
Are muhurtas different for each activity?
Yes. Marriage, housewarming, business, travel and surgery each have their own rules, so the ideal nakshatra and tithi vary by purpose.
