Muhurta is a term used in Vedic astrology that refers to the selection of an auspicious time or moment for initiating an event or activity. It is believed that the timing of an event can significantly impact its outcome and success.
When selecting the ideal muhurta, the primary factors taken into account are the solar weekday known as Vara, the lunar day referred to as tithi, and the constellation of the Moon known as nakshatra.
The combination of Vara, Tithi, and Nakshatra stands as the utmost significant factor in determining the auspiciousness or inauspiciousness of a specific moment.
