November 1, 2026: Pushya, a Cancer Moon, and the Sun's Own Sunday

The Moon has moved into Cancer, the sign it rules, and into Pushya, the nakshatra most traditions call the steadiest of all. With Sadhya yoga running too, this is one of the cleaner Sundays of the month for something you have been meaning to begin.

Yesterday carried Ardra and a restless Gemini Moon. Today that settles. Pushya holds all the way until 04:31 tonight, and a Cancer Moon tends to make people want to tend, feed and repair rather than chase.

It is Ravivar, the Sun's own day, and the tithi is Krishna Saptami, whose deity is Surya. Saptami lasts until 14:53. The day leans toward elders, health, and anything tied to the father or to your own vitality.

One caution. Vishti karana sits in the first part of the day before Bava takes over. Vishti is the stretch tradition asks you not to launch anything brand new into, so spend the morning reviewing, mending and laying groundwork, and keep the formal start for after it gives way to Bava.

As always, Rahu Kaal, Gulika and Yamagandam move with your city's sunrise, so one printed figure would be wrong for most readers. Check your own town's windows on the panchang tool before fixing a muhurta.

A good day in the sky is only half a reading. What Pushya and this Cancer Moon actually do for you depends on where they land in your own chart. Give AstroMedha your birth date and it draws your chart free, with no account, then opens Chart Chat with two questions on the house.
