Graha Shanti puja:
Graha Shanti refers to the pacification of planets through rituals, which can be performed alongside the Vastu Shanti to enhance the positive impact of the ceremony. The positions of the nine planets (Navagraha) play a crucial role in determining the optimal time for the Griha Pravesh and Vastu Shanti. The following planetary factors are often considered:
- Brihaspati (Jupiter): The planet of growth and prosperity, should not be in retrograde or afflicted by malefic planets during the ceremony.
- Budh (Mercury): A strong mercury can ensure good communication and harmony within the home
- Mangal (Mars): Mangal governs property and construction. A favourable position on this planet ensures stability and protection in the home.
By aligning the timing of the Griha Pravesh and Vastu Shanti with beneficial planetary movements, the rituals help neutralise negative influences and enhance the overall positivity of the home.
Best Nakshatra for Griha Pravesh 2025
Nakshatra plays a crucial role in determining the auspicious timing for the Griha Pravesh Ceremony, as it directly influences the cosmic energy at that time. The top Nakshatras for Griha Pravesh include:
- Rohini: Symbolises growth, fertility, and abundance. Performing the Griha Pravesh during Rohini Nakshatra ensures prosperity and positive energy in the household.
- Mrigashira: Associated with joy and calmness, it fosters harmonious relationships within the home, making it an ideal time for housewarming.
- Anuradha: Known for its ability to foster loyalty and cooperation, Anuradha Nakshatra brings peace and stability to the home.
- Revati: Signifies prosperity, growth and happiness. A Griha Pravesh ceremony performed under this Nakshatra is believed to usher in success and long-term financial stability.
These Nakshatras, when chosen for the Griha Pravesh influence different areas of life, such as
- Prosperity (Rohini and Revati)
- Harmony (Mrigashira and Anuradha)
- Peaceful relationships (Anuradha)
- Financial Stability (Revati)
Shubh Muhurat for Griha Pravesh in 2025
A Shubh Muhurat is calculated by a combination of key astrological factors:
- Tithi: Specific lunar days that are considered auspicious.
- Nakshatra: Favorable constellations like Rohini, Mrigashira, Revati and Anuradha.
- Day: Some weekdays, like Monday or Thursday, are naturally more auspicious for Griha Pravesh.
- Lagna: Ascendant Sign at the time of the event that influences the cosmic alignment for the ceremony.
The local Panchang, or the astrological calendar, plays a role in fine-tuning the Muhurat based on regional and geographic differences. It customizes the Griha Pravesh muhurat for specific cities, factoring in local time zones, sunrises and planetary positions.
One important aspect is the Abhijit Muhurat, which is regarded as universally auspicious. It falls in the middle of the day and is often used when no other suitable Muhurat is available, especially for urgent housewarming ceremonies.
Custom Muhurat Suggestions
Personalized Muhurat recommendations are essential for those looking for precise timings aligned with astrological charts. The birth chart, also known as Kundli, is used to calculate the best time based on:
- Personal planetary positions
- Specific Nakshatras influencing the individual’s chart.
- Avoidance of malefic planets like Saturn or Rahu, impacting key houses related to home, wealth and relationships.
Tools like the online Panchang calculators and astrology software can help in finding the ideal Muhurat. Consider consulting an experienced astrologer to align the Griha Pravesh Muhurat with personal Graha positions and birth charts to get the best results.

After performing these rituals, placing Vastu items like a Yantra or Tulsi plant can further harmonise the space.
