Reading the day

Thursday · Jupiter’s day — the most auspicious of the week
Favours ceremonies and religious acts, marriage, beginning education, and matters of finance.
Pushya · Kshipra (swift) star
The Moon’s star suits opening shops, trade, crafts, starting studies, ornaments, and healing.
Nanda (joy) tithi
A tithi of festivity — celebrations, the arts, pleasure, and light auspicious work.
  • Disha Shool sits in the south — travellers traditionally avoid beginning a journey toward the south today.

Classical muhurta guidance for the day, calculated without AI. It is general guidance, not a substitute for an elected muhurat.
