Why this score
16 Jan 2024 scores 29/100 for Marriage — the Panchang reads as unfavourable for marriage. On this Tuesday, the lunar day is Shashthi (Shukla Paksha), the Nakshatra is Purva Bhadrapada, Yoga is Parigha, and Karana is Kaulava. Together these elements shape whether tradition would green-light marriage right now.
Supporting signals: Supportive lunar phase (Kaulava); Waxing moon period (Shukla Paksha). Friction points: Challenging nakshatra (Purva Bhadrapada); Challenging energy period (Parigha 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 17 Jan 2024 (score 100/100, Excellent). A common pattern: prepare paperwork on a Neutral/Avoid day, then close on a Good or Excellent date.
