Marriage Muhurta

• Favourable Nakshatras: Rohini, Mrigashira, Magha, Uttara Phalguni, Hasta, Swati, Anuradha, Mula, Uttara Ashadha, Uttara Bhadrapada, Revati
• Nakshatras to avoid: Bharani, Kritika, Ardra, Ashlesha, Jyeshtha, and the 4th pada of Vishakha
• Auspicious Tithis: 2nd, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 10th, 11th, and 13th of Shukla Paksha; avoid Amavasya, Purnima, Chaturthi, and Rikta tithis
• Best weekdays: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday are favoured; Tuesday and Saturday are traditionally skipped

Is Abhijit Muhurat good for marriage? Abhijit Muhurat — the ~48-minute window around local noon — is highly auspicious for most beginnings, but for weddings it is treated as a secondary fallback, used only when a dedicated vivah lagna cannot be secured. Classical authorities prefer a lagna-based vivah muhurat because the rising sign at the moment the couple joins hands must be stable and benefic-aspected.

How to Find Marriage Muhurat From Kundali For Wedding?

People often ask how to find marriage muhurat from kundali, how muhurtham is calculated, how marriage dates are fixed, and how to check marriage muhurat reliably. The classical Vedic process follows seven checks, and any serious muhurat engine (including this one) runs through them in sequence:

1. 1. Kundali Milan (Guna Milan): Match the bride's and groom's charts for Ashtakoota compatibility (36 gunas). A score of 18+ is the baseline. Get full Ashtakoot Kundali Milan →
2. 2. Tara Bal: Check the nakshatra of the candidate date against both partners' Janma Nakshatras. Sampat, Kshema, Sadhana, Mitra, and Ati-Mitra taras are favourable.
3. 3. Chandra Bal: The transit Moon should sit in the 1st, 3rd, 6th, 7th, 10th, or 11th house from the birth Moon of both partners.
4. 4. Lagna Shuddhi: The rising sign at the exact vivah moment must be free of malefic occupation, with benefics aspecting the 7th house of marriage.
5. 5. Sun & Jupiter strength: Both luminaries must not be combust — this is why Shukra Asta and Guru Asta windows are skipped entirely.
6. 6. Dosha clearance: The date must clear Bhadra, Panchaka, Dagdha Yoga, Marana Yoga, Chaturmas, Pitru Paksha, Kharmas (Malamas), Holashtak, and Shunya Tithi.
7. 7. Final scoring: Surviving dates are ranked using positive yogas — Ravi Pushya, Guru Pushya, Amrit Siddhi, and Sarvarthasiddhi — producing the final list of shubh vivah muhurats.

This seven-step workflow is exactly how to calculate muhurat for Hindu marriage without missing a rule. Manual calculation takes a trained pandit several hours per couple; our engine runs it in seconds for any date range in 2026 or 2027, personalised to your and your partner's nakshatras.

So, Which Month Is Good for Marriage in 2026?

Vedic scriptures permit marriage in specific Hindu months: Magha, Phalguna, Vaishakha, Jyeshtha, and parts of Margashirsha and Paush. In Gregorian terms for 2026, the strongest wedding seasons run from late January through mid-July, and again from mid-November to mid-December.

Periods commonly avoided for vivah:

• Chaturmas: Devshayani Ekadashi to Devuthani Ekadashi, roughly July to November — Lord Vishnu is in yoga-nidra, so weddings are not solemnised.
• Pitru Paksha: The fortnight of ancestor veneration in Bhadrapada, September–October.
• Kharmas / Malamas: When the Sun transits Sagittarius and Pisces — mid-December to mid-January and mid-March to mid-April.
• Holashtak: The eight days before Holi.
• Shukra Asta & Guru Asta: Combustion windows of Venus and Jupiter (Guru).
