Pushya Nakshatra 2026 Dates: Guru Pushya and Ravi Pushya Yoga
All Pushya Nakshatra dates in 2026 with start and end times (IST), highlighting Guru Pushya and Ravi Pushya yoga days for buying gold and new beginnings.
Pushya is considered the most auspicious of the 27 nakshatras for buying gold, jewellery, vehicles and property, and for starting new work. The Moon passes through Pushya about once every 27 days.
When Pushya falls on a Thursday it forms Guru Pushya Yoga, and on a Sunday Ravi Pushya Yoga, both prized for purchases. The weekday here runs from sunrise to the next sunrise (Delhi).
