Moving into a new home is a milestone filled with excitement and hope.

Choosing the correct date and time in 2026 can bring peace, prosperity, and happiness to your new beginning. This guide breaks down the best Griha Pravesh dates and timings month-wise for 2026, helping you plan this important event with confidence.
What is Griha Pravesh and Why Timing Matters
Griha Pravesh is the Hindu ritual performed when entering a new home for the first time. It is believed that performing this ceremony at an auspicious time invites positive vibrations and wards off negative influences. The timing depends on astrological calculations involving the position of the moon, day of the week, and planetary alignments.
Selecting the right muhurat (auspicious time) is essential because:
It aligns your new home with cosmic energies.
It brings harmony and good fortune to the household.
It helps avoid obstacles and challenges in settling into the new space.
How to Choose the Best Griha Pravesh Muhurat in 2026
Astrologers consider several factors to determine the best dates and timings:
Tithi (Lunar day): Certain lunar days are more favorable.
Nakshatra (Star constellation): Some constellations bring better luck.
Weekday: Days like Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday are generally preferred.
Avoiding Rahu Kaal and Yamaganda: These are inauspicious time periods during the day.
Personal horoscope: Sometimes, individual birth charts influence the choice.
This guide provides general auspicious dates and timings month-wise for 2026. For personalized muhurat, consulting a qualified astrologer is recommended.
