Why this score
21 Aug 2018 scores 48/100 for Buy Gold — the Panchang reads as mixed for buying gold. On this Tuesday, the lunar day is Ekadashi (Shukla Paksha), the Nakshatra is Moola, 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); Waxing moon period (Shukla Paksha). Friction points: Challenging nakshatra (Moola); Challenging energy period (Vishkambha yoga). Rahu Kaal runs 3:00 PM–4:30 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 22 Aug 2018 (score 73/100, Good). A common pattern: prepare paperwork on a Neutral/Avoid day, then close on a Good or Excellent date.
