Apart from these common Panchanga shuddi checks, the general astrological quality based on the horoscope for the moment is also analysed. Factors such as Solar and Lunar eclipses, Sankranti and Sandhyakalam are also considered.

Grihapravesha is better done in Uttarayana rather than Dakshinayana. Lunar months of Makha, Phalguna, Vaishakha and Jyeshta are considered most favourable. Astro-Vision StarClock software gives you the muhurthas for the Grihapravesa as well as for a whole lot of other ceremonies.
