Vrat: Starting a Vow
You have made up your mind to keep the vrat. Begin it on a day that helps you finish it.
You have made up your mind to keep the vrat. Begin it on a day that helps you finish it.
A vrat starts with faith and a personal wish. You want to keep it to the end, and you want the wish behind it fulfilled. The determination is yours.
The classical texts on muhurta shastra tie each vrat to its own days, so the first day matters. We work out that first day for the city where you keep the vrat. The report also counts forward and gives you the day it completes.
What you get
Auspicious windows to start the vrat for your city, with dates and times. The completion date for the start you choose. The top 3 most auspicious ones highlighted. The days to avoid tagged along with the reasons. And, the classical text reference behind each recommendation.
What we need
Your birth date, time and place, the vrat, and the city where you keep it.
Vrata arambha is the start of a vow you mean to keep, such as sixteen Mondays or a year of a chosen observance. The classical texts link each vrat to its own tithi and nakshatra. The muhurat times the first day.

Testimonials
Sixteen Mondays is a long thing to begin wrong, and last year I began it wrong. My sister told me the first day had not been right, I dropped it, and I felt bad about that for four months. So this time I read the day myself before I started anything.
