What is Dwipushkara yoga?

Dwipushkara is an auspicious muhurta yoga. It forms when a Bhadra tithi, Dwitiya, Saptami or Dwadashi, falls on a Sunday, Tuesday or Saturday, together with one of the two-footed (dvipada) nakshatras: Mrigashira, Chitra or Dhanishta. The name means that which pushes twofold, and anything begun in this yoga, from a purchase to a new venture, is expected to repeat or double.

Tithi: Dwitiya, Saptami or DwadashiWeekday: Sunday, Tuesday or SaturdayNakshatra: Mrigashira, Chitra or Dhanishta

All three must overlap at some point in the Panchang day. Because the Panchang day starts at sunrise, an overlap in the small hours counts toward the previous sunrise day, which is how almanacs date this yoga.

How these dates were calculated

Each date below was computed with our Panchang engine using a sunrise-based weekday model: a tithi and nakshatra overlap in the small hours belongs to the previous sunrise day's weekday, matching how published almanacs date these yogas. The 2026 Dwipushkara list matches standard references exactly.
