Why this score
17 Jan 1956 scores 24/100 for Open Shop — the Panchang reads as unfavourable for opening a shop. On this Tuesday, the lunar day is Chaturthi (Shukla Paksha), the Nakshatra is Shatabhisha, Yoga is Variyan, 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: Unfavorable lunar day (Chaturthi); Less favorable day of the week. 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 18 Jan 1956 (score 72/100, Good). A common pattern: prepare paperwork on a Neutral/Avoid day, then close on a Good or Excellent date.
