Muhurta

**Muhurta** refers to an auspicious or favorable time, determined by astrological calculations, for beginning important activities or events such as **marriage**, **starting a new business**, **moving into a new home**, **starting a journey**, or **performing religious rituals**.

In **Vedic astrology**, specific planetary positions and their alignments are considered to identify the most propitious moments. Muhurta is calculated by analyzing factors such as **Tithi** (lunar day), **Nakshatra** (constellation), **Vara** (weekday), **Yogas**, and **Karana** to find a time that minimizes obstacles and maximizes success.

By selecting a favorable Muhurta, astrologers believe that one can enhance the chances of success, prosperity, and harmony in the venture or event being undertaken.
