168 auspicious days · computed from tithi, nakshatra and vaar
Annaprashan marks the child’s first taste of solid food — usually in the sixth month for boys and the fifth or seventh for girls. Nourishing, benefic nakshatras are chosen for a samskara concerned with health and sustenance.
Avoid Amavasya, Rikta tithis, and the child’s birth nakshatra. Tuesdays and Saturdays are traditionally skipped.

Pushya nakshatra is especially favoured for Annaprashan. The first food is traditionally kheer, offered by the maternal uncle in many communities.
These are general (public) muhurats based on the panchang — the same basis almanacs publish. A complete muhurat also weighs your own chart: Tara Bala, Chandra Bala, and the strength of the relevant house. Timings shown are computed for New Delhi; for other cities see the local panchang.
Ask our AI Vedic astrologer whether a specific date suits your birth chart — Tara Bala, Chandra Bala, and the house involved. 10 free questions every day.
