Starting work or a business in 2028

The dates

Which of these suit you

The dates above are the same for everyone in the city. These two checks are not: tarabala counts the day's star from your own, and chandrabala reads the Moon's sign from yours. Give both birth stars and the list below says which dates clear for both of you — and for the ones that do not, who they are blocked for.

How these are chosen

Each date has to pass panchanga shuddhi: the nakshatra must be one classically named for the purpose, the tithi must not be Rikta, the karana must not be Bhadra, and for a wedding neither Guru nor Shukra may be combust. Every date below carries the reasons it passed.

• The nakshatra is one of those classically named for this
• The tithi is favourable for beginning something
• It falls in the waxing fortnight, preferred for anything begun
• The yoga of the day is auspicious

Where the classical lists disagree about which stars are acceptable, we take only the ones they all agree on. That makes this list shorter than some. A date we leave out costs you nothing; a date we wrongly include costs you a wedding.
