Formula & methodology

Formula: Griha pravesh screening = favourable month + Shukla tithi + entry nakshatra + clean clock window

  1. Enter the intended entry date and your city.
  2. The calculator returns the day’s tithi and nakshatra to match the housewarming lists.
  3. Abhijit Muhurat gives the default entry slot; Rahu Kaal shows the window to keep clear.
  4. Shortlist passing dates; the family priest then sets the exact kalash-entry minute.

Worked example — 10 Jun 2026, Delhi: Uttara Bhadrapada is a recognised griha-pravesh star and Abhijit runs 11:57–12:45, but Rahu Kaal opens at 12:21 — so the entry (right foot first, kalash in hand) is best completed 11:57–12:21, with the vastu-shanti havan before it.

Frequently asked questions

What are the three types of griha pravesh?
Apoorva — first entry into a newly built home (strictest muhurat); Sapoorva — re-entry after relocation or long absence; and Dwandwah — entry after repairs/renovation or an inauspicious event. The muhurat rigour relaxes slightly down that list.
Which months are best for housewarming?
Classically Magha, Phalguna, Vaishakha and Jyeshtha (roughly Feb–June). Many families also avoid Chaturmas (July–November) and the Kharmas Sun-in-Dhanu month. Regional almanacs differ at the margins — screen the specific date with this tool either way.
What rituals happen on the day?
Vastu shanti/puja and a havan first, then the entry at the elected moment: kalash with water/coins/grains carried by the lady of the house, right foot across the threshold, boiling of milk in the new kitchen, and Ganesha–Lakshmi worship inside. The sequence is timed so the entry lands in the clean window.
Can we move in before the griha pravesh?
Tradition prefers the ceremonial first-entry before furniture and routine living begin — at minimum, the kitchen’s first fire should follow the puja. If logistics force early moving, families typically keep one symbolic item and the first cooking for the muhurat day.
Is Rahu Kaal really binding for griha pravesh?
It is one of the most-observed rules: the threshold crossing and kalash placement are “beginnings”, exactly what Rahu Kaal is avoided for. Since it is only ~90 minutes, scheduling around it is easy — the calculator shows the exact local window for your date.
