Vedic Muhurat & Panchang – Tuesday, 4 August 2026
Krishna Paksha • Shashthi • Revati nakshatra • Tuesday
On Tuesday, 4 August 2026 (Tuesday, also called Mangalvar), the moon is in Shashthi (day 6 of the waning moon), with the moon transiting Revati nakshatra. The yoga is Dhriti and the karana is Vanija.
The krishna paksha continues — neither a fast day nor a major festival tithi by default. The sixth tithi — auspicious for vows to Subramanya / Murugan; Skanda Sashti falls on a Shashthi in Karthigai. Revati is considered soft — favourable for travel, conclusions and beginnings of journeys.
Tuesday is ruled by Mars and is generally avoided for soft beginnings; it is used for surgery, sports and disputes.

How astrologers read this date
In Vedic muhurta practice, three pieces of information are checked first: the tithi (Shashthi), the nakshatra (Revati) and the weekday (Tuesday). For Tuesday, 4 August 2026, that combination produces a routine day.
- Marriage muhurtham: the basic nakshatra–tithi check is favourable; verify lagna with an astrologer.
- House-warming (gruhapravesham): the weekday (Tuesday) is generally avoided.
- Vehicle purchase / new business: the weekday is mixed; pick a clear muhurta within Abhijit.
- Travel: the nakshatra is light/movable — favourable.
The above is a quick rule-of-thumb based on classical muhurta tables. Regional traditions (Tamil, Kerala, Bengali, Maharashtrian) sometimes weigh things differently — for binding decisions, consult a qualified astrologer with your janma rashi and lagna.
