which is considered to be most important
or any good activity.
From Janma lagna and Janma rasi 6,8,12
positions of moon in Muhurta is not good.
Similarly from lagna of Muhurta
6,8,12 positions of moon
s not considered to be good.
17
 TARABALAM
Tarabalam depends on ones birth star.
Taking birth star as one count till Muhurta star
Divide the number by 9 and the
Remainder is called Tarabalam.
t has names with corresponding planetary lords
and the animal it represents .
t will give the result indicated.
Thus 3 5 and 7 stars are to be avoided
for any good work.
18
 TARABALAM-Contd

19
 TARABALAM-Contd
As for some classics while these are rigorously held
for first cycle, in second ( 10 to 18 ) and third cycle
(19 to 27) of stars some carry lesser evil.
Also as for the dictum of Vasishtha for the marriage
of Lord Rama – it is said that
“ Vivaho Pratyak tara shreshthah”
For marriage Pratyak tara is good.
 
As for some the following ghatikas at the beginning
of the star are most harmful and after these ghatikas
one may select the muhurta after proper dana
( donation). 20
 TARABALAM-Contd
Still as for some the following padas are to be omitted
and may select the muhurta

1 Janma = 7 Gahtikas and Omit 3 rd pada

3 Vipat Tara = 3 Gahtikas and Omit 1 st pada
 5.Pratyak tara = 8 Gahtikas and Omit 4 th pada and
7 naidhana tara = 8 Gahtikas and Omit 2 nd pada
 
Still as for some Janma tara of first cycle
( 1 to 9 stars) Vipat tara of 2nd cycle ( 10 to 18)
and naidhana tara of third cycle ( 19 to 27) are to
be omitted. 21
 PANCHAKA DOSHA

28
 GOOD and BAD MUHURTAS
BASED ON YEAR
1.Chaandra Maana or Lunar Year : Consists of 12 maasaa
starting with Chaitra maasa.
2.Saaurya Maana or Solar Year: It consists of 12 months
from Mesham to Meenam.
3.Saavan Maana: This year consists of 12 months of
3 days each and has 360 days.
4. Nakshatra Manaana: Each month consists of movement
of moon in the Nakshatras from Aswani to Revati
with about 324 days.
5. Baahraspatya Maana: Ths is based on movement of Guru
or Jupiter in different signs and is about 361 days
duration.
Popular Gregorian Calendar generally followed with
leap year etc. 29
 GOOD & BAD MUHURTAS-2
In the years based on Baahraspatya Maana (Jupiters
position in a rasi) is linked with performing rites to
ancestors at the banks of a particular river (also called
kumbha meela) – hence it is a common custom in some
parts of India not to perform very important functions like
marriage for those living on the banks of that particular
river during that Baahraspatya Maana year and devote
the year for pitru kaarya. It is important to note that
astrology offers a solution to such situations – where
it is important to perform the marriage – by suggesting
that the above rule can be overcome by performing the
marriage at pilgrimage centers like Tirupati.
 
30
 BASED ON SEASONS

In old times when the transportation was based on

slow methods like walking or bullock carts – it was
thought that daily rituals should not be disturbed by
seasons. Hence especially for pilgrims or for
people who were in religious order – a vratam called
caatur maasya vratam is prescribed. It is suggested
that for the type of people mentioned above should
be at one
place and should not travel during these four
months. As these fall in rainy season – possibly the
origin of this vratam is more of travel convenience
than based on rigorous astrological rules.
31
 BASED ON MONTHS

The months are mainly two types – solar based

or lunar based – in both types certain months
are prohibited for selecting a muhurta for a
good activity.
These are popularly called Suunya maasa.
They are Aani of Tamil (Mithuna maasa) and
aashaadha maasa in lunar system.
This is more of regional practice
Also Mhudhya – Helical setting months are
omitted 32
