The Moon enters Virgo and Hasta favours careful finishing work, but Vishkumbha yoga rewards slowing down before you commit.

Friday 6 November 2026: the Moon enters Virgo and Hasta opens, good for careful, finish-it-today work, while Vishkumbha yoga rewards slowing down. Read the day, then your own chart free.

I do not know my birth time (we read from the Moon instead)

Friday morning carries a quiet reshuffle. The Moon left Leo and entered Virgo (Kanya) overnight, the nakshatra moved from Uttara Phalguni into Hasta, and the tithi stepped from Ekadashi to Krishna Dwadashi, which itself gives way around 10:32 this morning. The mood you woke with is not the mood the day settles into.

Hasta is the hands. Its guiding figure is Savitar, the light that sets things in motion, and it favours skilled, careful, finish-it-today work. If something needed a steady hand, a repair, a draft, a detailed task, this is the window for it.

The one caution is the yoga. Vishkumbha has taken over from Vaidhriti, and it is the harsh opener of the cycle. It does not ruin a day. It just punishes rushing. Slow the first move, double-check before you commit, and it passes.

Dwadashi under Krishna paksha is a settling, letting-go tone, not a starting one, so the day rewards closing loops over opening new fronts. And it is Shukravar, Venus's day, so relationships, money and small kindnesses all respond well to a gentle touch.

City matters for the day's sharp windows. Rahu Kaal, Gulika and Yamagandam all shift with your local sunrise, so check yours on the panchang tool before you time anything important.

Common questions

What tithi is it on 6 November 2026?

Krishna Dwadashi, which ends around 10:32 in the morning. It sits in the Krishna (waning) paksha of Kartika month.

Which nakshatra is active on this day?

Hasta, ruled by the Moon with Savitar as its deity. It carries through the day and into the early hours, ending around 04:44, and it favours skilled, detailed, finish-it work.

Is Vishkumbha yoga bad?

It is counted among the inauspicious yogas and it took over from Vaidhriti today. It does not spoil the day; it penalises haste. Slow your first move and double-check before you commit.

When is Rahu Kaal on 6 November 2026?

Rahu Kaal and the other sunrise-based windows shift with your city's sunrise, so a single printed figure would be wrong for most readers. Check your location on the panchang tool.

What does Friday add to the day?

It is Shukravar, the day of Venus, so relationships, money matters and gentle, pleasing things respond well to a soft, unhurried touch.
