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.

Seasons this month:

  • Ashadh, Shravan, Bhadrapad and Ashwin, as the amanta count (months that end at Amavasya) names it: not a month this is done in: all month
  • Shukra asta, Venus too close to the Sun to be seen: from Sat 17 Oct

The festival days, for this work:

  • Sun 11 Oct, Sharad Navratri: Not done on a Sunday
  • Mon 19 Oct, Durga Ashtami and Maha Navami: Ashwin Shukla: not a month this is done in
  • Tue 20 Oct, Dussehra: Not done on a Tuesday
  • Sun 25 Oct, Sharad Purnima: Not done on a Sunday
  • Thu 29 Oct, Karva Chauth: Kartik Krishna, which the amanta count still calls Ashwin: not a month this is done in

Clock times are for New Delhi; they move with sunrise, by up to about an hour across India. The tithi and the nakshatra are the same everywhere. For your own city, use the griha pravesh muhurat finder.

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

Common questions

4 questions
How many griha pravesh muhurat dates are there in October 2026?

None, because the lunar months up to and including 9 November 2026 are not ones this is done in; and Shukra (Venus) is asta, too close to the Sun to be seen, up to and including 1 November 2026. The next shubh day is Wednesday, 11 November 2026.

Is Dussehra (20 October 2026) a good day for griha pravesh?

Not by the panchang: not done on a Tuesday.

What shut all 31 days of October 2026 for griha pravesh?

Of its 31 days, 23 fall in a lunar month it is not done in and 8 fall on a weekday it is not done on.

Which month near October 2026 has more days for griha pravesh?

December 2026, with 5 days; November 2026 has 4.

These are the good days. Not necessarily your good days.

A muhurat read off the panchang is the same for everybody in New Delhi. Read against your own kundli it can move, and for griha pravesh that is usually worth the ten minutes.
