What astrological rule governs choosing the right time for a Griha Pravesh?
Griha Pravesh timing follows canonical astrology and Muhurta Shastra rules — if Venus or Jupiter is combust (Asta) at the time, housewarming should be postponed until a genuinely auspicious Muhurta.
How should the new home be prepared and the deities established there?
The new worship area is decorated like welcoming a guest — a Toran of mango and Ashoka leaves at the entrance, banana-trunk pillars, and rangoli — after which the deities are carried carefully, bathed, and established, followed by worship alongside a Griha Pravesh or Satyanarayan puja if one is being performed.
