About this module

Annaprashan Muhurta

What this is

Annaprashan Muhurta is an electional-astrology reading — Muhurta Shastra, the Vedic science of choosing the moment in which an act begins. The module weighs the five limbs of the panchangam and returns the auspicious windows for this specific matter.

History & tradition

Muhurta is one of the oldest branches of Jyotisha — the same texts that describe the tithis, nakshatras and weekdays describe which kinds of acts suit which moments. For centuries, marriages, house-warmings, journeys and beginnings of every kind were opened only in a weighed muhurta.

How the tradition practiced it

Traditionally the astrologer cast the day's panchangam — tithi, vara, nakshatra, yoga, karana — then checked Rahu Kaal, Gulika and the rising lagna before pronouncing a window. The rule was simple: begin when the moment carries you, not against you.

What it covers
  • The five panchangam limbs for the day

Deeper detail

The module computes the real panchangam for your place and date — tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana, hora — then applies the classical electional rules for this kind of act, listing the windows with the reasons attached.

Common questions
What is a muhurta?

A weighed auspicious window — 48 minutes in the classical measure — chosen so the moment's panchangam supports the act it begins.

Which limbs does a muhurta check?

Tithi (lunar day), vara (weekday), nakshatra (moon star), yoga and karana — plus Rahu Kaal, Gulika and the rising lagna.
