What Is Muhurtam?

Muhurtam (also spelled Muhurta) is the Vedic science of selecting an auspicious moment to begin an important activity. The underlying principle is that events begun under favourable planetary configurations have a greater chance of proceeding smoothly and successfully.

A Muhurtam is not superstition β€” it is a sophisticated analysis of the five Pancha-Anga elements (Tithi, Vara, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana) combined with the natal charts of the individuals involved, to find a window of time when the cosmic environment is aligned with the intended purpose.
