Why this score
24 Dec 2016 scores 38/100 for Annaprashan — the Panchang reads as unfavourable for annaprashan ceremony. On this Saturday, the lunar day is Ekadashi (Krishna Paksha), the Nakshatra is Swati, Yoga is Atiganda, and Karana is Bava. Together these elements shape whether tradition would green-light annaprashan ceremony right now.
Supporting signals: Supportive lunar phase (Bava). Friction points: Challenging energy period (Atiganda yoga); Less favorable day of the week. Rahu Kaal runs 9:00 AM–10:30 AM; most families avoid signing or finalising during that window. Abhijit Muhurat (11:36 AM–12:24 PM) is the most commonly used “safe” slot if you must proceed today.
If you can wait, the next stronger window is 1 Jan 2017 (score 97/100, Excellent). A common pattern: prepare paperwork on a Neutral/Avoid day, then close on a Good or Excellent date.
