Calculation of Muhurat
The whole calculation of Muhurat is to be done by using Panchang. Basically, Panchang is an Indian Vedic calendar that presents the auspicious date and their calculations. So it is the ultimate tool to calculate Muhurat. As the name indicates Panchang it means five components which are as follows:-
- Vaar
It refers to the day of the week on some particular date. There are seven days such as Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.
- Tithi
It refers to the lunar date on a particular date. It is based on the location of Moon in either Krishna Paksha or Shukla Paksha.
- Nakshatra
This the most important part of Panchang. Nakshatra means constellations. The constellations must be considered while calculating the Muhurat. There are 27 constellations each subtends up to 13 degrees and 20 minutes of Zodiac.
- Yoga
Yoga plays a very important role in determining the right Muhurat period. 27 Yogas can be used to determine the exact time for doing an event. These are achieved by:
Sum of the Nirayana Longitude of Moon & the Sun then equally dividing this sum into 27 parts
- Karana
Karana is half of Tithi. It is to be noticed that every Tithi has 2 Karnas.
Reflection of Yoga
