New Delhi, October 1 (Udaipur Kiran) : The Hindu Panchang holds significant importance in determining auspicious times for various activities, from travel to rituals. On October 2, 2026, the sixth date of the Krishna Paksha in the month of Ashwin will last until 10:15 AM, after which the seventh date will commence. Sunrise is at 6:22 AM, and sunset will occur at 6:09 PM. The moonrise is expected at 10:41 PM, with moonset at 1:00 PM.
According to the Panchang, the Sun will be in the Hasta Nakshatra on this day, which is believed to have a profound impact on all twelve zodiac signs. The Moon, which governs the Hasta Nakshatra, is considered a friend of the Sun. Vedic astrology designates Hasta as the thirteenth Nakshatra, symbolizing ‘hand,’ and it is associated with the Virgo zodiac sign.
The Harshan Yoga will persist until 8:52 PM, regarded as a highly auspicious time for activities that bring happiness and success. This period is ideal for celebrations, weddings, and starting new ventures.
The Abhijit Muhurat, considered the most fruitful time of the day, will be from 11:52 AM to 12:39 PM. Activities undertaken during this period are believed to negate any negative influences.
Additionally, an Amritkal will occur from 6:40 AM to 8:10 AM, recognized as a highly favorable time for significant undertakings, including investments and important travels.
However, caution is advised during the Rahukal, which spans from 10:47 AM to 12:16 PM, as this time is deemed inauspicious for new ventures. Similarly, the Gulika Kal from 7:51 AM to 9:19 AM should also be avoided for starting new tasks, while ongoing activities can continue.
The Yamagand Kal will take place from 3:13 PM to 4:41 PM, a period associated with potential health issues and misfortunes, making it unsuitable for initiating new projects or travels.
On this day, the Sun will be positioned in Virgo, affecting individuals’ work and intellectual capabilities. The Moon will remain in Taurus until 3:40 PM, a position that is considered strong and favorable, positively influencing one’s life and mindset.
Traveling in the west direction is discouraged on this day as it is viewed as an inauspicious direction according to astrological and Vastu principles.
