Ghatasthapana (Kalash Sthapana)05:44 to 06:160 h 33 min

Abhijit Muhurat (alternative): 11:11 to 11:58 (0 h 47 min)

First third of the day: 05:44 to 09:38
Tithi: Pratipada: 21:19 (previous day) to 21:31

Chitra Nakshatra: 21:43 (previous day) to 22:33 — traditionally avoided for Ghatasthapana, but not prohibited.

Vaidhriti Yoga: 22:03 (previous day) to 21:06 — traditionally avoided for Ghatasthapana, but not prohibited.

For Sharad Navratri, Ghatasthapana is done on Pratipada in the first third of the day, within the dual-nature (Dvisvabhava) lagna rising at sunrise — normally Kanya. Pratipada must prevail; it is not done at night. If the morning window is not available, Abhijit Muhurat is used. Family and regional practices vary.

Tarabalam and Chandrabalam for your Moon sign

Chandrabalam: the day's Moon sign counted from your Moon sign (janma rashi) is favourable in the 1st, 3rd, 6th, 7th, 10th and 11th place. Tarabalam: the day's nakshatra counted from your birth nakshatra, in groups of nine (Taras), is favourable for Taras 2, 4, 6, 8 and 9, unfavourable for 3, 5 and 7, and mixed for 1 (Janma). Choose your Moon sign, and your birth nakshatra if you know it.

Chandrabalam at sunrise for Moon signs

Mesha (Aries), Karka (Cancer), Kanya (Virgo), Vrishchika (Scorpio), Dhanu (Sagittarius), Meena (Pisces)

Unfavourable Tara for: Ashwini, Krittika, Pushya, Magha, Uttara Phalguni, Anuradha, Mula, Uttara Ashadha, Uttara Bhadrapada

At sunrise the Moon is in Kanya (Virgo), in Chitra. The Moon changes sign or nakshatra during the day, so these lists can change after sunrise; choose your Moon sign for the times.

A traditional indication from the classical counting rules, not a prediction. Nothing you choose here is stored.
