Panchak, Bhadra and special yogas

Panchak Present

  • to
    Moon in Kumbha/Meena (Dhanishta 3rd pada to Revati)
    traditional type: Agni Panchak (began on Tuesday)

The Panchak interval is an astronomical fact (Moon's position). Restrictions associated with it — such as avoiding southward travel, roofing, wood-gathering or certain funeral rites without remedies — are traditional and vary between communities. Learn more

Bhadra (Vishti karana) Present

  • to
    Residence: Bhumi (earth)

Bhadra is the Vishti karana (a calculated half-tithi). Many traditions avoid auspicious beginnings during Bhadra, especially when it resides on earth (Moon in Karka, Simha, Kumbha or Meena); some permit activities when it resides in Swarga or Patala. Learn more

Special yogas 1

  • Ravi Yoga
    to

Anandadi yoga

  • Dhvanksha Inauspicious
    to
  • Ketu (Dhvaja) Inauspicious
    to

One of 28 yogas from the weekday and the Moon's nakshatra, counted with Abhijit (Muhurta Chintamani, Shubhashubha Prakarana). Each gives the result its name says; the good and bad grouping follows the Hindi commentary of the cited edition.

Shivavas

  • In the assembly Inauspicious
    to
  • At play Inauspicious
    to
  • On Kailash Auspicious
    to

Where Shiva resides by the tithi (twice the tithi number plus 5, divided by 7), considered before Rudrabhishek and Shiva worship for a wish. A Karmakanda custom: the verse is quoted in Karmakanda manuals; no named classical text is cited. Kailash, with Gauri and on the bull are taken as favourable.

Nakshatra Shool

  • Moon in Purva Bhadrapada: a journey to the south is avoided
    to

A note for travel, not a rule of this page: no journey to the east in Jyeshtha, to the south in Purva Bhadrapada, to the west in Rohini or to the north in Uttara Phalguni (Muhurta Chintamani, Yatra Prakarana). The weekday Disha Shool is shown separately.

Vinchudo

No Vinchudo today.

The Moon in Vrishchika (Scorpio). Gujarati almanacs mark it as a time to avoid starting auspicious work and journeys; this is a regional custom with no classical text cited.

Disha Shool

West: avoid starting a journey in this direction today.
If it cannot be avoided, taste barley (jau) before leaving.

Chandra vasa: North
The direction where the Moon dwells: favourable in front of or to the right of the traveller.

Agni vasa:

  • In the sky to
  • In Patala to
  • On earth to

Where the fire dwells for a havan; on earth is favourable.

Travel muhurat and Disha Shool by weekday

Tarabalam and Chandrabalam for your Moon sign

Chandrabalam: the day's Moon sign counted from your Moon sign (janma rashi) is favourable in the 1st, 3rd, 6th, 7th, 10th and 11th place. Tarabalam: the day's nakshatra counted from your birth nakshatra, in groups of nine (Taras), is favourable for Taras 2, 4, 6, 8 and 9, unfavourable for 3, 5 and 7, and mixed for 1 (Janma). Choose your Moon sign, and your birth nakshatra if you know it.

Chandrabalam at sunrise for Moon signs

Vrishabha (Taurus), Mithuna (Gemini), Kanya (Virgo), Tula (Libra), Makara (Capricorn), Meena (Pisces)

Tarabalam at sunrise for birth nakshatras

Bharani, Rohini, Ardra, Pushya, Ashlesha, Purva Phalguni, Hasta, Swati, Anuradha, Jyeshtha, Purva Ashadha, Shravana, Shatabhisha, Uttara Bhadrapada, Revati

Unfavourable Tara for: Ashwini, Krittika, Mrigashira, Magha, Uttara Phalguni, Chitra, Mula, Uttara Ashadha, Dhanishta

At sunrise the Moon is in Meena (Pisces), in Purva Bhadrapada. The Moon changes sign or nakshatra during the day, so these lists can change after sunrise; choose your Moon sign for the times.

A traditional indication from the classical counting rules, not a prediction. Nothing you choose here is stored.
