What the muhurat is for

and how the day is kept

As most families keep it, a Ganesh puja and a Vastu puja come first; then the family enters with a kalash of water topped with mango leaves, the woman of the house stepping in right foot first. Milk is boiled until it rises over in the new kitchen as the first thing cooked, and many families sleep in the house that night. The entry is what the muhurat times.

What the panchang asks for

Housewarming
Nakshatras
  • Rohini, Mrigashira, Uttara Phalguni, Chitra, Anuradha, Uttara Ashadha, Uttara Bhadrapada, Revati
Tithis
  • Shukla: Dwitiya, Tritiya, Panchami, Saptami, Dashami, Ekadashi, Trayodashi
  • Krishna: Dwitiya, Tritiya, Panchami, Saptami, Dashami, Ekadashi, Trayodashi
Weekdays
  • Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday

These are the rules the standard panchangs apply for this work; they go back to the classical muhurat texts, Muhurta Chintamani above all.

Muhurta Chintamani sorts the 27 nakshatras by nature: fixed (dhruva), for what is meant to last; soft (mridu), for gentle things such as friendship and music. This work takes the fixed ones (Rohini, Uttara Phalguni, Uttara Ashadha, Uttara Bhadrapada) and the soft ones (Mrigashira, Chitra, Anuradha, Revati). It leaves out the rikta (“empty”) tithis, Chaturthi, Navami and Chaturdashi, which are kept clear of beginnings, and Amavasya, the dark night. Its table also leaves out Shukla Pratipada, Shashthi, Ashtami and Dwadashi, and Krishna Pratipada, Shashthi, Ashtami and Dwadashi, which it does not count among this work’s tithis. Sunday is Surya’s day and Tuesday is Mangal’s day, and Surya and Mangal are krura (harsh) grahas: those days are left out.

All the rules for griha pravesh: the months it is done in, the closed seasons and the hour
