Generate your free Kundli →Daily Panchanga-Shuddhi + general activity guidance (CONVENTION): the activity suitability is the nakshatra-nature → act mapping (Muhurta Chintamani), gated by the day-limbs — general electional guidance, not a directive, and medical/surgical timing is deliberately excluded. Nakshatra-nature is the dominant 27-fold scheme; only Rikta tithis are flagged; the verdict weighting is one transparent pinned rule — always read the contributing factors, and consult a full muhurta table for a specific act.
