Moving into a new home? Learn the types of Griha Pravesh, the rituals performed, the samagri you need and how to choose an auspicious muhurat.
Griha Pravesh is the sacred ceremony performed when entering a new home for the first time. It purifies the space, invites the blessings of the deities and removes negative energy.
Three types of Griha Pravesh
- Apoorva — entering a newly built home for the first time.
- Sapoorva — returning to a home after a long journey or absence.
- Dwandwah — re-entering after renovation or a natural calamity.
Main rituals
- Ganesh Pooja and Kalash Sthapana at the entrance
- Vastu Shanti Pooja and Navagraha Shanti
- Boiling milk in the kitchen until it overflows — a symbol of abundance
- Havan to purify the home
Choosing the muhurat
Basant Panchami, Akshaya Tritiya, Gudi Padwa and Dussehra are traditionally auspicious. Our pandits calculate an exact muhurat based on your nakshatra when you book.
