Bhumi Pujan Muhurat 2025: Best Auspicious Dates, Rituals & Vastu Guide
Initiating a construction project—be it your dream home or a commercial venture—calls for more than bricks and blueprints. According to Hindu belief, performing Bhumi Pujan (groundbreaking ceremony) on an auspicious date and time (muhurat) invites divine blessings, clears negative energies, and ensures smooth progress. In 2025, carefully selected muhurats offer you spiritually aligned moments to start your build with positivity and purpose. Let’s explore them in detail.
1. What is Bhumi Pujan?
Bhumi Pujan, also called Neev Puja or Bhumi Pujan Muhurat, is a ritual performed before laying the foundation stone. It honors the Earth Goddess (Bhumi Devi) and Vastu Purusha—the spirit of the site—and seeks forgiveness for disturbing the ground. The ceremony includes a foundation laying, chanting sacred mantras, and invoking protection from deities. Its aim is to initiate construction with positive energy for safety, prosperity, and harmony.
2. Why Does the Muhurat Matter?
Choosing the right muhurat means syncing your start with auspicious lunar days (tithis), constellations (nakshatras), and fasting periods. Orthodox traditions avoid inauspicious times like Chaitra, Jyeshtha, Ashadha, or periods like Kharmas and Pitru Paksha, during which rituals may not yield positive results
