Why this score
18 Feb 2016 scores 54/100 for Buy Gold — the Panchang reads as mixed for buying gold. On this Thursday, the lunar day is Ekadashi (Shukla Paksha), the Nakshatra is Ardra, Yoga is Vishkambha, and Karana is Vanija. Together these elements shape whether tradition would green-light buying gold right now.
Supporting signals: Favorable lunar day (Ekadashi); Favorable day of the week. Friction points: Challenging nakshatra (Ardra); Challenging energy period (Vishkambha yoga). Rahu Kaal runs 1:30 PM–3:00 PM; 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 20 Feb 2016 (score 92/100, Excellent). A common pattern: prepare paperwork on a Neutral/Avoid day, then close on a Good or Excellent date.
