What the muhurat is for
and how the day is keptThe muhurat is for reporting on the first day, or for signing the joining letter when that is the day the job begins. Many families send the person off with a spoonful of dahi-cheeni, curd and sugar, and a prayer at home. When the office fixes the date, reaching work or signing in its best time, clear of Rahu Kaal (the eighth of the daylight that belongs to Rahu), is what most families settle for.
