Vedic Muhurat & Panchang – Friday, 9 October 2026
Krishna Paksha • Chaturdashi • Uttara Phalguni nakshatra • Friday
On Friday, 9 October 2026 (Friday, also called Shukravar), the moon is in Chaturdashi (day 14 of the waning moon), with the moon transiting Uttara Phalguni nakshatra. The yoga is Brahma and the karana is Bava.
The krishna paksha continues — neither a fast day nor a major festival tithi by default. The fourteenth tithi — Krishna paksha Chaturdashi includes Maha Shivaratri (Phalguna / Maasi). Uttara Phalguni is considered fixed and benevolent — widely used for marriage muhurthams.
Friday is ruled by Venus and is favoured for marriage, vehicle purchases, jewellery and creative work.

How astrologers read this date
In Vedic muhurta practice, three pieces of information are checked first: the tithi (Chaturdashi), the nakshatra (Uttara Phalguni) and the weekday (Friday). For Friday, 9 October 2026, that combination produces a routine day.
- Marriage muhurtham: the basic check is not favourable on this date; consult an astrologer for a different date.
- House-warming (gruhapravesham): the nakshatra is favourable; choose a sunrise-to-Rahu-Kalam window.
- Vehicle purchase / new business: the weekday is supportive — avoid Rahu Kalam.
- Travel: the nakshatra is fixed/sharp — non-essential travel may be deferred.
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.
