Why this score
17 May 2105 scores 27/100 for Open Shop — the Panchang reads as unfavourable for opening a shop. On this Sunday, the lunar day is Chaturthi (Shukla Paksha), the Nakshatra is Ardra, Yoga is Dhriti, and Karana is Vanija. Together these elements shape whether tradition would green-light opening a shop right now.
Supporting signals: Positive energy alignment (Dhriti yoga); Waxing moon period (Shukla Paksha). Friction points: Unfavorable lunar day (Chaturthi); Challenging nakshatra (Ardra). 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 2105 (score 88/100, Excellent). A common pattern: prepare paperwork on a Neutral/Avoid day, then close on a Good or Excellent date.
