Vedic Muhurat & Panchang – Wednesday, 15 July 2026
Shukla Paksha • Dwitiya • Pushya nakshatra • Wednesday
On Wednesday, 15 July 2026 (Wednesday, also called Budhvar), the moon is in Dwitiya (day 2 of the waxing moon), with the moon transiting Pushya nakshatra. The yoga is Vajra and the karana is Balava.
The shukla paksha continues — neither a fast day nor a major festival tithi by default. The second tithi, considered favourable for travel, meeting new people and making professional introductions. Pushya is considered the most auspicious nakshatra in tradition — used for almost any important start except marriage.
Wednesday is ruled by Mercury and is favoured for study, writing, contracts and short trips.

How astrologers read this date
In Vedic muhurta practice, three pieces of information are checked first: the tithi (Dwitiya), the nakshatra (Pushya) and the weekday (Wednesday). For Wednesday, 15 July 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 acceptable but not classically preferred.
- Vehicle purchase / new business: the weekday is supportive — avoid Rahu Kalam.
- 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.
