How it works

Three steps from an event to the ideal time.

1

Choose the event

A wedding, a move, a business opening, a surgery, a journey, a car purchase, the start of studies and more — 23 goals in all. Always agree the surgery date with your doctor: a muhurta does not replace medical indications.

Give the date range within which the auspicious time must be found. You can name a city for the sunrise and sunset calculation.

Event specifics

Own rules for each type

For a wedding — extra factors around the 7th house. For business — the 10th and 11th. For travel — the 9th. Each event type carries its own set of priority factors.

Only the groups are named here. All 71 factors — each with an explanation of why the slot passed or failed it — open up in the calculation of your event. Some of the checks never appear in popular articles at all.

A day for a wedding — a live calculation

The panchanga and periods timeline, and below it the day map: up to 288 slots at 5-minute steps, each checked against 68 factors (71 with a natal chart). Favourable windows and kalas are visible at once.

Frequent questions

Dharmika checks 71 factors at once — most services check 5-10. We account for Rahu Kala, Yama Ghanta, planetary combustion, malefic aspects, tara bala and chandra bala against your natal chart, plus event-specific rules for each type.

For the basic calculation — no; the event type and the period are enough. But for a precise tara bala and chandra bala (personal strength of the time) your natal Moon's position is needed. If you have already built your chart in Dharmika, the data is filled in automatically.

Instantly. Calculating 288 slots a day against 71 factors takes under a second. Dharmika computes real ephemerides (Swiss Ephemeris), not approximations. A month's result — about 2 seconds.

Yes. Beyond the standard types (wedding, moving, business), you can choose "general auspicious time" — Dharmika will check the universal factors without tying them to a specific event type. Professional astrologers have a mode with manual factor weights.

Find the time

71 factors. 288 slots. No human could check that many by hand. Dharmika does it in seconds.
