Vivah Muhurat rules used on this page
- Kharmas is closed: no marriage while the Sun is in Dhanu (Sagittarius) or Meena (Pisces) (15 December 2025 – 14 January 2026, 14 March 2026 – 14 April 2026 and 15 December 2026 – 14 January 2027).
- Chaturmas is closed: from the moment Devshayani Ekadashi begins (23 July 2026, 23:43) to the moment Devuthani Ekadashi begins (19 November 2026, 20:46).
- An adhika month is closed: Adhika Jyeshtha, an adhika month, runs from 16 May 2026 to 14 June 2026.
- Guru and Shukra must be clear of the Sun: no marriage while Jupiter is within 11° of the Sun or Venus within 10° (8° while retrograde) — the classical combustion (asta) orbs.
- Nakshatra: the Moon in one of the eleven vivah nakshatras — Rohini, Mrigashira, Magha, Uttara Phalguni, Hasta, Swati, Anuradha, Mula, Uttara Ashadha, Uttara Bhadrapada and Revati.
- Tithi: never Amavasya. The rikta tithis (Chaturthi, Navami, Chaturdashi) are allowed, because the published almanacs allow them for marriage, and are marked in the table.
- Yoga and karana: the window avoids the nine rejected yogas — Atiganda, Ganda, Parigha, Shula, Vaidhriti, Vajra, Vishkamba, Vyaghata and Vyatipata — and the karanas Chatushpada, Kimstughna, Naga, Shakuni and Vishti.
- The day: sunrise to the next sunrise, for New York. A day that any closed season touches at all is left out whole; inside the days that remain, the muhurat is the time when every condition above holds at once.
- Not checked here: the lagna for the pheras and the couple's own charts (Guru, Surya and Chandra bala). A priest fixes the lagna inside the window.
Dates held back by Guru or Shukra asta
These days clear every other rule, but Jupiter or Venus is inside its combustion orb. Almanacs that count asta only while the planet is invisible list some of them.

Why other calendars show different dates
- Asta by orb or by sight. This page treats Jupiter or Venus as combust while it is inside its classical orb. Some almanacs count asta only while the planet is actually lost in the Sun's glare, a shorter stretch — so they also list some of the 26 days in the held-back table above.
- Rikta tithis. Marked here, not removed: the major almanacs allow them for marriage.
- Kharmas and Chaturmas. A few published lists include dates inside these seasons; this page follows the classical rule and leaves both out.
- Further doshas and the lagna. Stricter almanacs screen every day for more doshas than these, which removes a few more dates. Treat this list as the panchang-shuddhi starting point and have the final muhurat fixed by your priest.
- The city. The day starts at sunrise, so a window near dawn can fall on a different date in another city.
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.
