Is the time of booking or the time of delivery important?

Traditionally the moment you take possession - paying and receiving the keys - is what the muhurat should cover. If the dealer fixes the delivery time, book it inside one of the windows shown.

Why are Tuesday and Saturday excluded?

Tuesday (Mars) and Saturday (Saturn) are associated with accidents and delays, so most Panchangs leave them out for buying vehicles.

Why are the muhurat dates for Chicago different from India's?

A muhurat is built from the Tithi and Nakshatra in force between local sunrises, and from the local times when they change. A Nakshatra that begins at 9 PM in Delhi begins at 11:30 AM in New York, so a window can move to the previous day, shrink, or vanish. Asta of Venus and Jupiter also depends on the place: near the horizon at high latitudes they stay hidden longer, which closes weeks of dates in London that are open in India. That is why every date here is calculated for Chicago itself rather than converted from IST.

How accurate are these dates?

The engine reproduces Drik Panchang's published muhurat tables day by day. Checked against every day of 2025-2027 for Delhi, New York, London and Sydney, it matches all 4,380 days for each of the four ceremonies - which days have a muhurat, the reason a day is excluded, and every muhurat window to within two minutes (Drik prints whole minutes). Jupiter and Venus asta periods match Drik's for 143 of 143 periods checked from 2012 to 2027.

Does a muhurat also depend on my birth chart?

Yes. The dates here pass Panchang Shuddhi - the day itself is clean. Traditionally the time should also have good Tara Bala and Chandra Bala for the people involved, and the Moon should not be 8th from their Moon sign (Chandrashtama). The muhurat finder checks this for every family member you add; an astrologer can then fix the exact Lagna.

How Chicago's dates differ from India's

Converting India's muhurat list to Chicago time gives the wrong answer on 61 days in 2027, because the Tithi and Nakshatra change at different points of Chicago's day and Venus and Jupiter set and rise on different dates in its sky.

Choosing between dates?

Panchang Shuddhi narrows the dates; the final choice also weighs the Lagna and the birth charts of everyone involved. Bring your shortlist to a consultation and go through it with an astrologer, in your local time.
