Annaprashan Muhurat rules used on this page
- Where these rules come from: the annaprashan rules of the sanskara chapter of Muhurta Chintamani. No large almanac publishes a computed annaprashan list for a whole year, so they are stated here in full rather than matched to someone else's dates.
- Weekday: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday (the Vedic weekday, which changes at sunrise). Never Tuesday, Saturday or Sunday.
- Nakshatra: the Moon in one of these 16 — Ashwini, Rohini, Mrigashira, Punarvasu, Pushya, Uttara Phalguni, Hasta, Chitra, Swati, Anuradha, Uttara Ashadha, Shravana, Dhanishta, Shatabhisha, Uttara Bhadrapada and Revati.
- Tithi: Dwitiya, Tritiya, Panchami, Saptami, Dashami, Trayodashi of either fortnight, and Purnima. Never Pratipada, Chaturthi, Shashti, Ashtami, Navami, Ekadashi, Dwadashi, Chaturdashi or Amavasya.
- Season: none. The child's age decides the month, so there is no month, Kharmas or Chaturmas rule; only an adhika month is closed. Adhika Jyeshtha, an adhika month, runs from 17 May 2026 to 15 June 2026.
- Age — guidance, not computed: the texts give the sixth or eighth month for a boy and the fifth or seventh for a girl — even months for boys, odd for girls, counted from birth — and many families simply choose the sixth month. Find the month the child is in, then pick a date from it here.
- The day: sunrise to the next sunrise, for Kathmandu. A day any closed period touches is left out whole; inside the days that remain, the muhurat is the time when every condition above holds at once, for at least 20 minutes.
- Not checked here: the child's own chart (Chandra bala and Tara bala) and the lagna. A priest checks these against the child's birth details.

Muhurat for another city
The day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise, and sunrise differs across India by well over an hour — so a window near dawn can belong to a different date in another city, and every clock time moves.
These links recompute the list for the city you pick. They are variants of this page: each carries a canonical back to the address above and asks search engines not to index it.
