Panchang — Monday, 10 August 2026
Tithi: Saptami (Shukla Paksha) — seventh lunar day of the waxing fortnight | Nakshatra: Rohini — ruled by the Moon, governed by Brahma; highly auspicious for beginnings, beauty, and material prosperity | Yoga: Siddha Yoga — one of the most auspicious yogas, conferring success in new ventures initiated today
Auspicious Window (Muhurat): 07:12 AM – 09:18 AM and 02:45 PM – 04:30 PM IST — excellent for signing agreements, travel, and starting new projects
Planetary Note: Moon transits Rohini in Vrishabha today, forming a harmonious trine with Saturn in Kumbha. Jupiter holds steady in Mithuna, expanding communication and learning for all signs. Mars energises Simha, adding drive and confidence. Mercury, freshly direct in Karka, begins untangling delayed paperwork and conversations.
Today’s Observance: 10 August 2026 falls during the holy month of Shravan (Sawan), which is in full observance across India. This Monday in Shravan is especially sacred to Lord Shiva — Shravan Somavar, one of the most auspicious Monday fasts of the year. Devotees observe upavasa (fasting), visit Shiva temples, and offer Gangajal, bilva leaves, and milk to the Shivalinga. Unmarried women pray for a devoted spouse; married couples pray for household harmony. The Saptami tithi combined with Siddha Yoga on a Shravan Monday makes today particularly potent for Shiva worship and spiritual intention-setting.

Mesh / Aries (April 14 – May 14)
Ruling Planet: Mars
Mars, your ruling planet, blazes through Simha in your fifth house today, bringing a surge of creative energy and romantic magnetism. A long-pending personal project — whether artistic, entrepreneurial, or relationship-related — is ready to move forward under today's Siddha Yoga. The Moon in Rohini forms a positive angle to your sign, softening impulsive tendencies and encouraging you to listen before you leap. Children or younger colleagues may bring unexpected good news.
Lucky Colour: Saffron Orange | Lucky Number: 9
Spend at least 30 minutes today on a creative or passion project — today's planetary energy will make even small efforts disproportionately productive.
Vrishabha / Taurus (May 15 – June 14)
Ruling Planet: Venus
The Moon moves through your own sign in the highly fertile nakshatra of Rohini today, making this one of your best days of the month. Rohini is the Moon's favourite nakshatra, and with Moon as today's panchang ruler, Vrishabha natives will feel unusually grounded, attractive, and capable. Financial decisions made this morning carry strong positive results — especially anything related to property, savings, or household upgrades. Emotionally, a family relationship that has been strained will show signs of warming.
Lucky Colour: Pearl White | Lucky Number: 6
Initiate that conversation about finances or property you have been postponing — the cosmic door is open and Venus supports a favourable outcome.
Mithuna / Gemini (June 15 – July 14)
Ruling Planet: Mercury
Jupiter currently transits your own sign, blessing Mithuna natives with expanded intellectual horizons and opportunities for skill development throughout this period. Today, with Mercury now moving direct in Karka (your second house of speech and finances), a financial confusion or contractual misunderstanding that began weeks ago begins to resolve. This is the right day to renegotiate terms, revisit a rejected proposal, or clarify your value to an employer or client. Speak with precision and confidence — Mercury empowers your words.
Lucky Colour: Emerald Green | Lucky Number: 5
Draft and send that financial proposal or salary discussion email today — Mercury direct in your second house gives your words persuasive, lasting power.
Karka / Cancer (July 15 – August 14)
Ruling Planet: Moon
As a Moon-ruled sign, today's Moon in Rohini fills Karka natives with heightened intuition and emotional sensitivity. However, Mercury has just gone direct in your own sign, lifting the cloud of miscommunication that may have caused friction in close partnerships over the past few weeks. Use this restored mental clarity to have an honest heart-to-heart with someone you love. Health-wise, watch fluid intake and sleep quality today — your body responds strongly to lunar phases and the waxing Saptami may cause mild restlessness after midnight.
Lucky Colour: Silver | Lucky Number: 2
Write down three things you need to communicate to a loved one and deliver one of them today — directness born from care is your superpower right now.
Simha / Leo (August 15 – September 15)
Ruling Planet: Sun
Mars transits your own sign today, dramatically amplifying your natural confidence and leadership magnetism — but also the risk of ego clashes. This is an exceptional day for Simha natives in leadership roles, sports, sales, or any arena that rewards boldness. Saturn in Kumbha (your seventh house) aspects Mars, adding a disciplining force that reminds you: sustainable authority is built on fairness, not force. At work, delegate thoughtfully and avoid dismissing a colleague's concern even if it feels trivial.
Lucky Colour: Royal Gold | Lucky Number: 1
Channel today's powerful Mars energy into measurable output — set a specific target for the day and pursue it with focused intensity rather than scattered bravado.
Kanya / Virgo (September 16 – October 15)
Ruling Planet: Mercury
Mercury going direct brings immediate relief to Kanya natives, who may have felt mentally foggy or professionally overlooked during the retrograde. Today's Siddha Yoga, combined with Mercury's renewed strength in Karka (your eleventh house of gains and networks), opens a window for reconnecting with a professional contact who can benefit your career. An opportunity that seemed to evaporate may reappear — check your email or pending messages carefully today. Financial gains through a group project, referral, or elder sibling are highlighted.
Lucky Colour: Forest Green | Lucky Number: 14
Reach out proactively to one professional contact you have been meaning to reconnect with — Mercury direct in your gains house rewards those who take initiative.
Tula / Libra (October 16 – November 14)
Ruling Planet: Venus
Saturn in Kumbha forms a steady trine to Tula today, activating your fifth house of intelligence, speculation, and romance. This is a grounding Saturn trine — not one of fear or restriction, but of structured effort meeting genuine reward. If you have been pursuing an examination, certification, or creative pitch, today's clarity and patience will help you take a concrete step forward. Romantic matters also carry weight today: a serious conversation about commitment or future plans initiated under today's Siddha Yoga can lead to positive outcomes.
Lucky Colour: Pastel Blue | Lucky Number: 7
Dedicate at least one focused hour to a study or creative project today — Saturn's trine rewards consistent effort with tangible, lasting progress.
Vrishchika / Scorpio (November 15 – December 14)
Ruling Planet: Mars
Mars in Simha transits your tenth house of career and public reputation today, making this one of the most professionally charged days of the month for Vrishchika natives. Your determination and intensity — hallmarks of this sign — are on full display, and senior figures notice it. However, Jupiter in Mithuna aspects your eighth house, cautioning against hidden dealings or cutting corners in legal or financial matters. Act with complete transparency in all professional interactions and let your hard work be visible, not your shortcuts.
Lucky Colour: Deep Crimson | Lucky Number: 8
Make a visible, public contribution at work today — present an idea in a meeting, volunteer for a lead role, or follow up on a pending recommendation from a senior.
Dhanu / Sagittarius (December 15 – January 13)
Ruling Planet: Jupiter
Jupiter, your ruling planet, currently transits Mithuna — your seventh house of partnerships — and today's Rohini Moon sends a supportive signal from the sixth house. This combination is excellent for resolving a lingering health concern through professional consultation, particularly anything connected to diet, routine, or chronic fatigue. In professional partnerships, a discussion that needs closure — perhaps about shared responsibilities or profit-sharing — can reach an amicable resolution today. Avoid overseas travel-related decisions after 5 PM as the Moon shifts toward a less favourable alignment.
Lucky Colour: Turmeric Yellow | Lucky Number: 3
Book that medical appointment or wellness consultation you have been avoiding — Jupiter's aspect gives you the wisdom to act, and today's muhurat supports healing decisions.
Makara / Capricorn (January 14 – February 12)
Ruling Planet: Saturn
Saturn rules Makara, and today Saturn in Kumbha — your second house — forms a harmonious trine with the Moon in Rohini, your fifth house. This alignment is rare and deeply supportive of Makara natives in matters of family wealth, ancestral property, and children's welfare. If you have been saving toward a family goal — education, home purchase, or a family event — you receive either practical clarity or unexpected good news on this front today. Your words carry authority today; use them to resolve a family disagreement with calm finality.
Lucky Colour: Indigo | Lucky Number: 10
Have a concrete financial planning conversation with your family today — write down at least one shared financial goal and the first actionable step toward it.
Kumbha / Aquarius (February 13 – March 13)
Ruling Planet: Saturn
Saturn continues its transit through your own sign, a transformative multi-year passage that demands Kumbha natives rebuild their identity and life structures with greater integrity and purpose. Today, the Moon in Rohini in your fourth house brings domestic matters into sharp focus — the condition of your home, your relationship with your mother or maternal figures, and your sense of inner peace all come up for examination. A Vastu correction in the home — especially removing clutter from the northeast or north zone — will noticeably lift the atmosphere. Avoid making impulsive real estate decisions; Saturn asks for thorough due diligence.
Lucky Colour: Sky Blue | Lucky Number: 11
Spend 20 minutes decluttering or reorganising one area of your home today — Saturn in your first house rewards those who bring order to their immediate environment.
Meena / Pisces (March 14 – April 13)
Ruling Planet: Jupiter
Jupiter in Mithuna occupies your fourth house, filling your domestic life with learning, communication, and occasional restlessness at home. Today's Moon in Rohini activates your third house of courage, communication, and short journeys — making this an excellent day for Meena natives who need to have a bold conversation, start a writing or media project, or take a short trip for professional purposes. If you have been second-guessing your creative voice, today's Siddha Yoga gives you the conviction to publish, present, or perform. Mercury direct in Karka — your fifth house — also clears a creative block.
Lucky Colour: Sea Green | Lucky Number: 12
Write, record, or publish something today — even a social media post, a proposal, or a heartfelt message — because Mercury direct in your fifth house gives your creative expression unusual resonance.
Vastu Tip of the Day
Monday is governed by the Moon, which rules the northwest (Vayavya) direction of any dwelling. As per the Manasara and Mahavastu principles, keeping the northwest zone of your home light, airy, and free of heavy furniture enhances movement, support from allies, and timely opportunities. Today, open the northwest window for at least an hour in the morning to allow fresh air and natural light to activate this zone. If this area holds clutter, shoes, or heavy storage, consider clearing it this week — stagnant northwest energy is classically associated with delayed decisions and unstable support systems.
Vedic Wisdom
Maharishi Parasara wrote in the Brihat Parasara Hora Shastra: 'The planets are the instruments of karma; the wise man uses their cycles not as chains but as a calendar for conscious action.' Today's Siddha Yoga on a sacred Shravan Monday reminds us that when inner readiness meets cosmic timing, even quiet steps forward can become landmarks. Act with clarity, speak with kindness, and trust the architecture of your life — it is more thoughtfully constructed than you know. Om Namah Shivaya.
