Shubha Karna Vedha Muhurtha
The sacred ear-piercing ceremony — the 6th of the 16 Vedic samskaras
Karna Vedha (ear piercing) is the 6th samskara in the traditional sequence of 16 life rites. It is traditionally performed between the 6th month and 5th year of a child's life. The ceremony is believed to protect the child, improve hearing and intellect, and in Ayurveda, the ear lobe is a marma (vital) point whose piercing has health benefits. Boys traditionally pierce the right ear first; girls the left.

Ayurvedic Benefit
Ear lobe is a marma point; piercing supports health
All sunrise-dependent muhurtha windows — Abhijit, Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, and Gulika Kalam — are computed from Kakinada's local sunrise (16.9891°N, 82.2475°E). Kakinada is 20 minutes east of Delhi's reference meridian, so every time window shifts by 20 minutes compared to national Panchanga tables.

Compute My Ear Piercing Muhurtha — Free →In Ayurveda, the ear lobe contains a marma (vital acupressure) point connected to the reproductive organs and the brain. Ear piercing at this point is believed to enhance hearing, improve brain function, and in girls, regulate the menstrual cycle. This is why traditional gold earrings have been worn from infancy.
Yes. While the ceremony is traditionally for young children, adults can perform Karna Vedha. The same nakshatra and tithi rules apply. For adults, the focus shifts more to the astrological muhurtha and less on the traditional day count from birth.
AstroShri uses the Swiss Ephemeris (highest precision planetary positions) with Lahiri Ayanamsha and BPHS muhurtha rules. All sunrise-dependent windows (Abhijit, Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda) are computed from Kakinada's exact coordinates (16.9891°N, 82.2475°E) rather than a national average. Personalised muhurtha also accounts for the individual's running Dasha period and Tara Bala.
Generic muhurtha rules give you the cosmic backdrop. A personalised muhurtha checks your running Mahadasha, Antardasha, Tara Bala, Ashtakavarga, and Lagna compatibility — giving a date that works for your chart.
