Selection of Thithis for specific jobs
The Thithis or Lunar days are numbered from 1 to 15 (Prathipada to Poornima – full moon) in the Shukla-Paksha (brighter half of the lunar cycle) and 1 to 14 and 30 (Amavasya – new moon) in the Krishna-Paksha (darker half of lunar cycle). Thithis are very important in selecting a suitable time (Muhurta) for performing specific tasks. Generally, thithis 1 to 5 of Krishna-Paksha and 10-15 of Shukla-Paksha are favourable.
