Launching a startup is more than just having a great idea — it’s also about choosing the right moment. In astrology, timing is everything. Just like farmers plant seeds in the right season, business owners can also benefit from starting when the cosmic conditions are just right.
For centuries, people have turned to astrology to find lucky days for marriage, travel, and important decisions. So why not business? Picking a favourable planetary time can increase success, stability, and smooth growth. If you’re planning to begin a new venture, this guide will help you understand how astrology can guide your startup’s timing.
How Astrology Helps in Business Launch
Astrology works by studying the position of planets, stars, and zodiac signs. For businesses, astrologers look at muhurat — the most suitable time — to make sure the energy at launch is positive and supportive.
The key factors studied include:
-
Day and Date (Tithi)
-
Planetary Hours (Hora)
-
Nakshatra (Constellation)
-
Ascendant or Lagna
-
Planetary transits, especially of Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, and Mars
All these factors are matched with your birth chart (kundali) and business goals.
Most Favourable Planets for a New Business
1. Jupiter – The Planet of Growth
Jupiter represents expansion, wisdom, and success. A strong Jupiter helps in attracting opportunities, loyal clients, and financial growth. Starting a business when Jupiter is well-placed brings long-term benefits.
2. Mercury – The Messenger and Business Brain
Mercury rules communication, logic, and trade. It supports sharp thinking and business strategy. A Mercury-positive period is great for launching online businesses, startups, or anything involving networking and deals.
3. Venus – Planet of Wealth and Attraction
Venus supports creativity, luxury, and money. If your startup is in fashion, beauty, design, or anything artistic, Venus’s influence is a blessing.
4. Saturn – The Steady Builder
Though slow-moving, Saturn gives structure, discipline, and long-lasting success when placed right. It may not offer fast gains, but it ensures stability and endurance.
Best Astrological Periods to Launch a Startup
✅ Shukla Paksha (Waxing Moon)
The waxing phase of the moon (when it grows) is linked with beginnings and prosperity. Launching during this time helps the business grow steadily.
✅ Ashwini, Rohini, Pushya, and Revati Nakshatras
These are some of the most auspicious stars for starting any new venture. Especially, Pushya Nakshatra is known as the king of all right muhurats.
✅ Lagna (Ascendant) Matching Your Chart
Launching a business during a favourable ascendant that matches your birth chart ensures smooth alignment with your natural energies.
✅ Days Ruled by Mercury, Jupiter, or Venus
Wednesdays (Mercury), Thursdays (Jupiter), and Fridays (Venus) are considered lucky for starting new ventures.
Days You Should Avoid
While choosing the right time is important, knowing what to avoid is equally necessary:
-
Amavasya (New Moon Day)
-
Eclipses (Solar or Lunar)
-
Retrograde Mercury (unless your chart supports it)
-
Saturday and Tuesday for soft or creative businesses
These periods often bring confusion, delays, or a lack of clarity.
