The engagement ceremony (Sagai or Nischitartha) is the formal agreement of marriage between two families. While the rules are similar to Vivah Muhurat, they are somewhat less stringent. The Moon should occupy a favorable Nakshatra, and Venus (the planet of love and partnership) should be strong and unafflicted. Avoid engagement during Pitru Paksha, Holashtak, and when Venus is combust (too close to the Sun). Shukla Paksha (waxing Moon) is preferred over Krishna Paksha.
MuhuratGuru uses a rigorous 5-element panchang scoring system powered by Swiss Ephemeris astronomical calculations. Unlike competitors who show static date lists, MuhuratGuru performs transition-to-transition analysis — identifying the exact hours when all panchang elements are simultaneously favorable. The scoring weights are: Nakshatra (30%), Tithi (25%), Yoga (20%), Karana (15%), and Vara (10%). Additionally, prohibited periods like Rahu Kalam, Gulika Kalam, Dur Muhurat, and Bhadra are automatically blocked.
Each date receives a quality tier: Our Pick (exceptional alignment), Excellent (all elements favorable), Very Good, Good, Neutral, or Avoid. The "Best Window" feature pinpoints the exact hours within a day when the muhurat quality peaks — giving you precision no other platform offers.
