Vedic Muhurat & Panchang – Monday, 28 December 2026
Krishna Paksha • Panchami • Magha nakshatra • Monday
On Monday, 28 December 2026 (Monday, also called Somavar), the moon is in Panchami (day 5 of the waning moon), with the moon transiting Magha nakshatra. The yoga is Priti and the karana is Taitila.
The krishna paksha continues — neither a fast day nor a major festival tithi by default. The fifth tithi, considered favourable for learning, treatment of illness and house-warming. Magha is considered fierce — used for ancestor rituals (Magha Pithru Tarpanam).
Monday is ruled by the Moon and traditionally favoured for water-related work, mother-related matters and emotional decisions.

How astrologers read this date
In Vedic muhurta practice, three pieces of information are checked first: the tithi (Panchami), the nakshatra (Magha) and the weekday (Monday). For Monday, 28 December 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 nakshatra is acceptable but not classically preferred.
- Vehicle purchase / new business: the weekday is mixed; pick a clear muhurta within Abhijit.
- 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.
