April-May Wedding Muhurats: With the Sun's transit into the sign of Aries, the period of *Kharmas* has ended, marking the resumption of auspicious ceremonies and rituals that had been on hold for a long time. Consequently, the auspicious season for weddings has returned, and preparations for the traditional wedding festivities—symbolized by the *Shehnai*—have intensified in households. From an astrological perspective, the period of April and May 2026 is considered highly auspicious and brimming with positive energy, thereby creating favorable conditions for marriages. Let us now explore the key auspicious wedding *muhurats* (auspicious timings) and dates falling within this period.

**What the Planetary Transits Indicate**

According to the *Panchang* (Hindu almanac), the positioning of the planets Venus and Jupiter during April and May 2026 is considered particularly auspicious. In astrology, these two planets are regarded as the significators of marriage, love, happiness, and prosperity. Their favorable alignment helps foster stability in marital life, enhances mutual understanding, and strengthens the harmony within relationships.

**Total Number of Auspicious Timings in April-May**

The auspicious timings for weddings have already commenced, beginning with *Akshaya Tritiya*. A total of 16 auspicious wedding *muhurats* are forming across the months of April and May. This time around, auspicious ceremonies will take place specifically during the *Jyeshtha* month—within the *Shuddha Jyeshtha Krishna Paksha* (dark fortnight) and *Shuddha Shukla Paksha* (bright fortnight) that coincide with the *Purushottam Maas*. However, these auspicious activities will once again come to a temporary halt during the one-month duration of the *Purushottam Maas* itself.
