Annaprashan Muhurat in June 2026

• 18 June A permitted nakshatra falls only in Shukla Chaturthi, which the rules exclude for annaprashan.

• 30 June Tuesday — the rules never fix a annaprashan on a Sunday, a Tuesday or a Saturday.

• Where these rules come from: the annaprashan rules of the sanskara chapter of Muhurta Chintamani. No large almanac publishes a computed annaprashan list for a whole year, so they are stated here in full rather than matched to someone else's dates.
• Weekday: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday (the Vedic weekday, which changes at sunrise). Never Tuesday, Saturday or Sunday.
• Nakshatra: the Moon in one of these 16 — Ashwini, Rohini, Mrigashira, Punarvasu, Pushya, Uttara Phalguni, Hasta, Chitra, Swati, Anuradha, Uttara Ashadha, Shravana, Dhanishta, Shatabhisha, Uttara Bhadrapada and Revati.
• Tithi: Dwitiya, Tritiya, Panchami, Saptami, Dashami, Trayodashi of either fortnight, and Purnima. Never Pratipada, Chaturthi, Shashti, Ashtami, Navami, Ekadashi, Dwadashi, Chaturdashi or Amavasya.
• Season: none. The child's age decides the month, so there is no month, Kharmas or Chaturmas rule; only an adhika month is closed. Adhika Jyeshtha, an adhika month, runs from 17 May 2026 to 15 June 2026.
• Age — guidance, not computed: the texts give the sixth or eighth month for a boy and the fifth or seventh for a girl — even months for boys, odd for girls, counted from birth — and many families simply choose the sixth month. Find the month the child is in, then pick a date from it here.
• The day: sunrise to the next sunrise, for New Delhi. A day any closed period touches is left out whole; inside the days that remain, the muhurat is the time when every condition above holds at once, for at least 20 minutes.
• Not checked here: the child's own chart (Chandra bala and Tara bala) and the lagna. A priest checks these against the child's birth details.
