Why this score
18 Dec 2104 scores 32/100 for Open Shop — the Panchang reads as unfavourable for opening a shop. On this Thursday, the lunar day is Pratipada (Shukla Paksha), the Nakshatra is Moola, Yoga is Ganda, and Karana is Kimstughna. Together these elements shape whether tradition would green-light opening a shop right now.
Supporting signals: Favorable day of the week; Waxing moon period (Shukla Paksha). Friction points: Challenging nakshatra (Moola); Challenging energy period (Ganda 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 19 Dec 2104 (score 87/100, Excellent). A common pattern: prepare paperwork on a Neutral/Avoid day, then close on a Good or Excellent date.
