Griha Pravesh Muhurat, March 2027
Of the 31 days in March 2027, 3 pass the classical test for a griha pravesh, and 18 never reached the test at all — Holashtak and Meena Kharmas covers them. Relax the tithi rule on its own and 1 further day would come in.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4 Thu | Uttara Ashadha | Krishna Ekadashi | passes everything |
| 10 Wed | Uttara Bhadrapada | Shukla Dwitiya | passes everything |
| 15 Mon | Rohini | Shukla Saptami | Holashtak |
| 22 Mon | Uttara Phalguni | Purnima | Meena Kharmas |
One rule short — 2 days
They divide by the rule they missed: 1 on tithi, 1 on vara.

- 8 MonAmavasya, Shatabhisha — short on tithi: Amavasya is not among the favoured tithis
Which rule did the excluding
18 days of March were shut by a closure and never examined. Of the 13 that were, 3 passed everything, 2 missed by a single rule, and 8 missed by two or more, in a month where one of this rite's 11 accepted nakshatras ran on 12 days. Nakshatra is the binding constraint here, ruling out 7 of the 13.
| 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 | 6 | 1 |
| Vara | Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday | 5 | 1 |
| Nakshatra | 11 of the 27 | 7 | — |
| Yoga | none of the nine ashubha yogas | 4 | — |
| Karana | not Vishti (Bhadra) at sunrise | 1 | — |
Read the last column as a counterfactual. 1 day of March fail on tithi and nothing else — 8 — 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 12 days of March 2027, with Dhanishta coming round twice.
Weekday supply. March 2027 holds 18 days of the right weekday (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday), 8 of them outside a closure, and 3 survive the rest of the filter — against 12 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 March 2027, and what ruled it out
All 31 days with the verdict and the reason, each linked to its own panchang page: 18 shut before being read, 13 examined against 11 nakshatras, 3 through.

March 2027 against the rest of 2027
Across the whole of 2027 this occasion has 13 qualifying days, and March 2027's 3 puts it 1st of the twelve. March 2027 is the widest month at 3 days, and 5 months of the year have none at all.
The other six occasions in March 2027
Same 31 days, seven different filters: in March they return between 1 and 3 qualifying days, median 3. This rite’s 3 is the median itself, and the reason is the 11-nakshatra set and the 5 closures it carries.
Questions about March 2027
How many days in March 2027 are good for griha pravesh?
3 days of the 31 pass every filter: 4 March (Thursday), 10 March (Wednesday), 11 March (Thursday). They are not evenly spread — the widest gap between two of them is 6 days. 2 further days miss on one rule alone and are listed with the rule they missed.
Is any part of March 2027 closed for auspicious beginnings?
Holashtak, 14 March to 21 March. The eight days ending at Holika Dahan on 21 March. Observed in Punjab, Himachal, Haryana and much of North India; not generally in the south or in Bengal. Meena Kharmas, 15 March to 14 April. The Sun is in Pisces. Auspicious beginnings are deferred through the whole transit.
Why do other sites list more griha pravesh dates in March 2027?
The closures alone take 18 of this month's 31 days — Holashtak, Meena Kharmas apply here — and a list assembled without them has 18 more days to draw on than this one does. Of the 13 that were examined, nakshatra removed 7.
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 March 2027 carries 4 days on which one of them falls: 4 March (Uttara Ashadha), 10 March (Uttara Bhadrapada), 15 March (Rohini), 22 March (Uttara Phalguni).
