Rules used

- 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

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.
