Griha Pravesh Muhurat 2020: Best dates for a house warming ceremony

A ‘Griha Pravesh’ or a house warming ceremony, is performed only once for a home. So, it is essential to take care of every detail, to avoid mistakes. If you have recently bought a home, this includes selecting the right date for the ceremony. It is better to plan the Griha Pravesh ceremony well in advance, to avoid problems in the last minute. Early planning can help you to lock in on the best Shubh Muhurat for your Griha Pravesh. Else, you may have to remain content with a normal muhurat, if you delay in finalising the date. To make things easier for you, we have listed out the auspicious dates for Griha Pravesh in 2019-20.

Important points to consider, for a Griha Pravesh ceremony

Vikash Sethi, CEO and promoter, A2Zvastu.com says, “Before entering the new home and finalising the Griha Pravesh date, ensure that your home is ready to be occupied. Ensure that the home is not vacant and someone from the family lives in it, immediately after the Griha Pravesh ceremony.” Sethi suggests keeping the following points in mind, before doing the Griha Pravesh:

• Ensure that there is no dwar vedh (obstacle) in front of your home’s main entrance.
• Keep the house neat and clean on the day of the Griha Pravesh.
• Light up the house and use flowers for fragrance, while decorating the home.
• Perform the Griha Pravesh during the exact muhurat recommended by the astrologer/expert.

You may perform the Griha Pravesh by inviting a limited number of relatives and friends and later, organise a big party on another date, as per your convenience. As you will not do another Griha Pravesh for the same home again, hence, avoid an unplanned entry. Take your time and decide the date carefully, while keeping all other details also in mind.
