16 Sanskars

Conception Muhurat: The Garbhadhana Sanskara

The best dates for conceiving your baby, across three months, calculated the way the Raj Jyotish once calculated them for royal families.

Garbhadhana is the first of the 16 Sanskaras: the conception of a child. The Raj Jyotish traditionally timed it so that a soul would be invited with calm, deliberate timing. For centuries this timing was open only to royal and very wealthy families. Tarini has studied how the Raj Jyotish made these calculations and now offers them to you.

What you get

The best dates for conceiving a baby, personalised to the mother and assessed across 3 months. You can plan conception around the auspicious dates and your own fertility window.

What we need

The mother's date, time and place of birth, and your city.

Garbhadhana is the sanskara that begins a family. It is the first of the sixteen rites that mark a life, and the one the Raj Jyotish treated with the greatest care. Three months of dates gives you room to choose the ones that fall inside your fertility window, calculated for the city you live in.

Testimonials

We married here and my mother in law in Kochi wanted the rite done the way it is done at home, which from six thousand kilometres away usually means done badly or not at all. Three months of windows came back in Singapore hours. So nobody sat up at two in the morning converting anything, and she raised no objection to a single one of them.
