Rules used

Mundan (chudakarana), the first haircut, is done in the daytime in the Uttarayana months, with a favourable nakshatra, tithi and weekday, avoiding periods when Venus or Jupiter is combust. Custom decides the age — often the first, third or fifth year.

  • Moon's nakshatra: Punarvasu, Swati, Shravana, Dhanishta, Shatabhisha, Mrigashira, Chitra, Revati, Ashwini, Pushya, Hasta, Jyeshtha
  • Tithi (Shukla paksha): Dwitiya, Tritiya, Panchami, Saptami, Dashami, Ekadashi, Trayodashi; (Krishna paksha): Dwitiya, Tritiya, Panchami, Saptami, Dashami, Ekadashi, Trayodashi
  • Weekdays: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
  • Sun's sign (solar month): Makara, Kumbha, Mesha, Vrishabha, Mithuna
  • No muhurat in an Adhik (extra) month
  • No muhurat while Venus or Jupiter is combust (Tara Asta), or in the 3 days before it sets and after it rises
  • Avoid the day of a Sankranti and of an eclipse
  • Only between sunrise and sunset

These are the generally auspicious windows. For a ceremony, an astrologer also checks the lagna at the chosen moment and the Tara and Chandra bala of the people involved — the same window can suit one person better than another.

Why are there no muhurats in some months?
