A new home is a life milestone — the griha-pravesh muhurta ensures the household's first energy lands in a clean panchang and an auspicious hour.
Best nakshatras: Rohini, Mrigashira, Chitra, Anuradha, Uttara-Phalguni, Uttarashadha, Uttara-Bhadrapada, Revati and Pushya. Among months, Magha, Phalguna, Vaishakha and Jyeshtha are held finest.
No griha-pravesh during Chaturmas (the deities' sleep); Kharmas, Adhika-masa and Bhadra are also barred. Tuesday is usually skipped, as are Amavasya and the rikta tithis. For a newly built house, a Vastu-shanti alongside is ideal.
Enter after sunrise in an auspicious Choghadiya (Amrit/Shubh/Labh) — right foot first, with the kalash. Pick a day from the list below and match your own city's Choghadiya on our Choghadiya page.
A muhurat depends on the tithi and nakshatra at local sunrise and on the day's choghadiya, which are divisions of Johannesburg's own day. Johannesburg's sunrise comes hours after India's, so the tithi can change in between — that is why a date here can differ from an Indian panchang by a day.
Johannesburg local time (SAST).
No — these are panchang-clean days for Johannesburg. Fix the final date only after matching the birth charts of the people concerned (Chandra-bala, Tara-bala, running dasha): use the muhurat tool with your birth details or consult an astrologer.
Yes — tradition advises a good day there as well, though the rules are lighter than for a new own home; a simple puja in a good Choghadiya suffices.
Tradition prefers daylight, especially the forenoon; for special cases, decide only after a lagna check with an astrologer.
Usually yes — Vastu-shanti/havan first, then the entry; both within one auspicious window is best.
