What the muhurat is for

and how the day is kept

The 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.

What the panchang asks for

First day
Nakshatras
  • Rohini, Uttara Phalguni, Uttara Ashadha, Uttara Bhadrapada
Tithis
  • Shukla: Pratipada, Dwitiya, Tritiya, Panchami, Shashthi, Saptami, Ashtami, Dashami, Ekadashi, Dwadashi, Trayodashi, Purnima
  • Krishna: Pratipada, Dwitiya, Tritiya, Panchami, Shashthi, Saptami, Ashtami, Dashami, Ekadashi, Dwadashi, Trayodashi
Weekdays
  • Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday

These rules come from the classical nakshatra classification and the job-joining references.

Muhurta Chintamani sorts the 27 nakshatras by nature: fixed (dhruva), for what is meant to last. This work takes the fixed ones (Rohini, Uttara Phalguni, Uttara Ashadha, Uttara Bhadrapada). It leaves out the rikta (“empty”) tithis, Chaturthi, Navami and Chaturdashi, which are kept clear of beginnings, and Amavasya, the dark night. Sunday is Surya’s day, Tuesday is Mangal’s day and Saturday is Shani’s day, and Surya, Mangal and Shani are krura (harsh) grahas: those days are left out.

All the rules for joining a job: the months it is done in, the closed seasons and the hour

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