The days that carried the four fixed (Dhruva) nakshatras
A house is meant to stand, so the four Dhruva nakshatras come first — Rohini, Uttara Phalguni, Uttara Ashadha and Uttara Bhadrapada.
| Day | Nakshatra | Tithi | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| 9 Sat | Uttara Ashadha | Shukla Dwitiya | Dhanu Kharmas |
| 14 Thu | Uttara Bhadrapada | Shukla Shashthi | Dhanu Kharmas |
| 19 Tue | Rohini | Shukla Ekadashi | Vara: Tuesday is not among the preferred weekdays |
| 26 Tue | Uttara Phalguni | Krishna Panchami | Vara: Tuesday is not among the preferred weekdays |
One rule short — 3 days
They divide by the rule they missed: 1 on vara, 1 on nakshatra, 1 on karana.

- 31 SunKrishna Dashami, Anuradha — short on vara: Sunday is not among the preferred weekdays
Which rule did the excluding
14 days of January were shut by a closure and never examined. Of the 17 that were, 2 passed everything, 3 missed by a single rule, and 12 missed by two or more, in a month where one of this rite's 11 accepted nakshatras ran on 14 days. Nakshatra is the binding constraint here, ruling out 10 of the 17.
| Rule | What it asks for | Days it excluded | On its own |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tithi | 7 of the fifteen — Dwitiya, Tritiya, Panchami, Saptami, Dashami, Ekadashi, Trayodashi and Purnima, Ashtami excluded | 7 | — |
| Vara | Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday | 8 | 1 |
| Nakshatra | 11 of the 27 | 10 | 1 |
| Yoga | none of the nine ashubha yogas | 5 | — |
| Karana | not Vishti (Bhadra) at sunrise | 4 | 1 |
Read the last column as a counterfactual. 1 day of January fail on vara and nothing else — 31 — so a family willing to set aside that one rule has that day available. No other single relaxation buys as much.
Nakshatra supply. 11 of the 27 are accepted for this rite, and they fell on 14 days of January 2027, with Chitra and Anuradha and Swati coming round twice.
Weekday supply. January 2027 holds 17 days of the right weekday (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday), 9 of them outside a closure, and 2 survive the rest of the filter — against 14 days supplied by the 11 nakshatras. Unlike the sky's four limbs, this is the one the calendar fixes.
Stated for Apoorva Griha Pravesh, a first entry into a newly built house. Re-entry after repairs or a long absence is treated more leniently, and Chaturmas is often accepted for it.
Every day of January 2027, and what ruled it out
All 31 days with the verdict and the reason, each linked to its own panchang page: 14 shut before being read, 17 examined against 11 nakshatras, 2 through.

January 2027 against the rest of 2027
The year holds 13 days for a griha pravesh. This month's 2 ranks 2nd of the twelve, level with 3 other months. March 2027 is the widest month at 3 days, and nothing at all in May, July, August, September, October.
The other six occasions in January 2027
Same 31 days, seven different filters: in January they return between 2 and 5 qualifying days, median 2. This rite’s 2 is the median itself, and the reason is the 11-nakshatra set and the 5 closures it carries.
Questions about January 2027
How many days in January 2027 are good for griha pravesh?
2 days of the 31 pass every filter: 15 January (Friday), 20 January (Wednesday). They are not evenly spread — the widest gap between two of them is 5 days. 3 further days miss on one rule alone and are listed with the rule they missed.
Is any part of January 2027 closed for auspicious beginnings?
Dhanu Kharmas, 16 December to 14 January. The Sun is in Sagittarius. Auspicious beginnings are deferred through the whole transit; it ends at Makar Sankranti.
Why do other sites list more griha pravesh dates in January 2027?
The closures alone take 14 of this month's 31 days — Dhanu Kharmas applies here — and a list assembled without them has 14 more days to draw on than this one does. Of the 17 that were examined, nakshatra removed 10.
Which nakshatras matter most for griha pravesh?
The four fixed (Dhruva) nakshatras, for a thing meant to last, with the soft and movable ones. Within that set, the four fixed (Dhruva) nakshatras is the group this occasion is built on, and January 2027 carries 4 days on which one of them falls: 9 January (Uttara Ashadha), 14 January (Uttara Bhadrapada), 19 January (Rohini), 26 January (Uttara Phalguni).
