Why this score
16 May 1948 scores 47/100 for Open Shop — the Panchang reads as mixed for opening a shop. On this Sunday, the lunar day is Ashtami (Shukla Paksha), the Nakshatra is Magha, Yoga is Dhruva, and Karana is Vishti. Together these elements shape whether tradition would green-light opening a shop right now.
Supporting signals: Waxing moon period (Shukla Paksha). Friction points: Challenging lunar phase (Vishti). Rahu Kaal runs 4:30 PM–6:00 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 18 May 1948 (score 76/100, Good). A common pattern: prepare paperwork on a Neutral/Avoid day, then close on a Good or Excellent date.
