வியாழன், 17 டிசம்பர், 2026 – வேத முகூர்த்தம்
Shukla Paksha • Ashtami • Uttara Bhadrapada நட்சத்திரம்
On வியாழன், 17 டிசம்பர், 2026 (Thursday, also called Guruvar), the moon is in Ashtami (day 8 of the waxing moon), with the moon transiting Uttara Bhadrapada nakshatra. The yoga is Vyatipata and the karana is Bava.
The shukla paksha continues — neither a fast day nor a major festival tithi by default. The eighth tithi — Krishna Janmashtami falls on Krishna paksha Ashtami in Bhadrapada / Avani; Durga is also worshipped. Uttara Bhadrapada is considered fixed — used for marriage and serious commitments.
Thursday is ruled by Jupiter and is one of the most auspicious weekdays — favoured for marriage, religious functions and new ventures.

How astrologers read this date
In Vedic muhurta practice, three pieces of information are checked first: the tithi (Ashtami), the nakshatra (Uttara Bhadrapada) and the weekday (Thursday). For வியாழன், 17 டிசம்பர், 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.
