In Hindu tradition, starting any new, auspicious, or ceremonial work is usually done only after consulting a shubh muhurat. From weddings and housewarmings to mundan ceremonies and new business ventures, choosing the right time is considered essential for success and prosperity. However, the Hindu calendar also mentions certain Abujh Muhurat—special dates when no separate muhurat or weekday calculation is required. On these days, auspicious activities can be performed freely.
The year 2026 will bring several such highly favorable dates. These Abujh Muhurat days act as a blessing, especially when planets like Venus or Jupiter are combust, a phase during which most auspicious activities are usually avoided. Let us take a detailed look at all the Abujh Muhurat dates in 2026, their significance, and why they are considered ideal for important life events.
