Vivah muhurat · विवाह मुहूर्त

22 auspicious wedding dates in 2027

Every date here is clear on the almanac — the nakshatra, the tithi and the weekday all agree, and neither Jupiter nor Venus is hidden by the Sun — but the couple’s own charts and the hour of the ceremony are still for your family astrologer to settle.

Why some months have no dates
  • Kharmas · खरमास

    The Sun is passing through Sagittarius or Pisces. This month is set aside for worship rather than for weddings and housewarmings.

  • Shukra asta · शुक्र अस्त

    Venus is too close to the Sun to be seen in the sky. Venus is the planet of marriage itself, so weddings wait until it rises again.

  • Chaturmas · चातुर्मास

    Vishnu is said to sleep for these four months, from Devshayani Ekadashi to Prabodhini Ekadashi. No weddings are held in this period anywhere in India.

  • Guru asta · गुरु अस्त

    Jupiter is too close to the Sun to be seen in the sky. Jupiter blesses the bride, so weddings wait until it rises again.

How these dates are chosen
  • Vivah nakshatra · विवाह नक्षत्रChecked

    Only the eleven stars the classical texts name for marriage: Rohini, Mrigashira, Magha, Uttara Phalguni, Hasta, Swati, Anuradha, Mula, Uttara Ashadha, Uttara Bhadrapada, Revati.

  • Tithi · तिथिChecked

    Dwitiya, Tritiya, Panchami, Saptami, Dashami, Ekadashi, Dwadashi and Trayodashi only. The Rikta tithis (fourth, ninth, fourteenth), Ashtami and Amavasya are rejected.

  • Weekday · वारChecked

    Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Tuesday and Saturday are avoided for marriage. Sunday is accepted in some regions; we leave it out.

  • Dagdha combinations · दग्ध योगChecked

    A weekday and tithi that “burn” each other — Thursday with Shashthi, Friday with Ashtami, and so on — are removed even when each is fine on its own.

  • Chaturmas · चातुर्मासChecked

    No dates between Devshayani Ekadashi (Ashadha Shukla Ekadashi) and Prabodhini Ekadashi (Kartika Shukla Ekadashi), roughly July to November.

  • Guru and Shukra asta · गुरु / शुक्र अस्तChecked

    No dates while Jupiter or Venus is combust — too close to the Sun to be seen. This is the constraint that empties whole months of the calendar, and it is checked here.

  • Kharmas and Adhik maas · खरमास / अधिक मासChecked

    The Sun in Sagittarius or Pisces, and any leap lunar month, are excluded. Sankranti days — when the Sun changes sign — are excluded too.

  • Your two chartsNot checked

    Not checked. Gun Milan, Mangal dosha and the bride’s and groom’s own nakshatras decide which of these dates suits you. Take this list to your family astrologer.

  • The wedding hour · लग्न शुद्धिNot checked

    Not checked. Choosing the rising sign for the ceremony itself is separate work, and it is what a muhurat is finally fixed on.

  • Bhadra, Panchak, Vish and HutashanaNot checked

    Not checked. These are windows within a day rather than properties of a day, so a list of dates cannot state them honestly.

Every reading is taken at sunrise at New Delhi (IST), the convention printed Indian panchangs use. A lunar day is an interval, not a calendar day, so a date near a boundary can fall a day earlier or later for a reader far from Delhi.
