Wedding Tithis After the 2023 Lists

Each tithi is one thirtieth of the Moon's separation from the Sun, so it can start at noon and cover two English dates. A 2023 table matched those lunar days to one year's weekdays. The match will not recur. What recurs is the ban: no Amavasya, no Chaturdashi if the family panchang also drops the 14th as a hard stop, and no rikta. Bhadra, Vishti karana, can spoil an otherwise acceptable tithi because a karana is half a tithi. Check it even after the tithi looks clean.

Shukla paksha is the usual preference for a wedding, the Moon growing toward fullness. Krishna paksha is not an automatic ban in every region, and this page will not pretend the regions agree. What they more often share is the avoidance of combust Venus and combust Jupiter. Those two are the marriage benefics. A fine tithi with Venus lost in the Sun is not a shubh muhurta. No degree of combustion is printed here. The panchang of the wedding city will say whether Venus is asta.

Pick the year from the 7th lord's dasha or Venus's, then pick the tithi inside that year. A perfect dwitiya in a 12th-lord antardasha is a clean lunar day on an exit clock. The couple's birth cities decide the lagnas that name those lords. The wedding city's zone, including daylight saving if it observes any, decides the lagna of the hour after the tithi is chosen. Fixed lagnas are preferred for the hour. The 2023 sheet cannot supply that hour.
