My first choice for you is Friday 20 November 2026, 12:41–2:07 pm, a window of 86 minutes. It falls in Shukla Ekadashi under the waxing Moon, in Uttara Bhadrapada, a nakshatra the texts give for opening trade, on a Friday, a benefic day. Your Tarabala is Sampat, the Moon is in the 10th sign from your birth Moon, and Aquarius is rising, a fixed sign for something meant to last. Begin after Rahu kaal ends at 12:06 pm.

Next comes Thursday 26 November 2026, 12:17–1:27 pm: Mrigashira, Krishna Dwitiya, Mitra tara, Aquarius rising, finished before Rahu kaal at 1:27 pm. Third is Wednesday 21 October 2026, 2:38–4:05 pm: Dhanishta, Shukla Ekadashi, Aquarius rising. Fourth is Wednesday 11 November 2026, 9:30–10:43 am: Anuradha, Shukla Dwitiya, Sampat tara, Sagittarius rising. Fifth is Friday 8 January 2027, 1:56–3:04 pm: Uttara Ashadha, Taurus rising, Sadhana tara.

Treat the first choice as the date and plan everything else around it. Have the stock, the signage, the accounts and the key people ready beforehand, so the opening minutes are for the ritual and the first sale rather than last-minute fixes. Stay out of the avoid-windows named for each date. The 11 November opening must be done before Jyeshtha begins at 11:38 am, and the 8 January opening must not stray into the Purva Ashadha hours before 9:13 am.

If the first date cannot work, move down the list in order and do not improvise. Two backups exist: Monday 26 October 2026, 2:54–3:45 pm, which has Ashwini and Kshema tara, and Monday 12 October 2026, 9:14–10:40 am, which has Swati and Parama Mitra tara, the best of the nine. The running Mercury and Moon period, from July 2026 to December 2027, carries both your yogas, so every date listed sits in a supportive stretch. Mercury is best pacified with mantra and charity, not with a gem, and Emerald is to be avoided. Any gemstone should be worn only after an astrologer checks it against your full chart.

Then the filters. A day needed a trading nakshatra from Muhurta Chintamani, on a Wednesday, Thursday or Friday (Monday as a gentler fallback), with a fixed rising sign so the business lasts. Out went rikta tithis, Amavasya, Vishti karana, Rahu kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, Vyatipata and Vaidhriti, the 3rd, 5th and 7th tara from your star, and the Moon in the 8th sign from yours. Twenty-five days held a good window. The rest failed on nakshatra, tara, an empty tithi or that eighth-sign Moon.

Your running Mercury period suits this. Mercury is the planet of trade, and in the Moon sub-period, until December 2027, your strong Moon activates the Raj Yoga and Chandra-Mangala Yoga, which favour earning through initiative. Mercury itself is weak, so start deliberately, not in a rush.

Take Friday 20 November 2026, 12:41–2:07 pm, as your first choice. It has Shukla Ekadashi, Uttara Bhadrapada, a Friday, Sampat tara, a Moon in the 10th sign from your birth Moon, and Aquarius rising. Do not begin in Rahu kaal, 10:46 am–12:06 pm. If that fails, use these in order: Thursday 26 November 2026, 12:17–1:27 pm; Wednesday 21 October 2026, 2:38–4:05 pm; Wednesday 11 November 2026, 9:30–10:43 am; Friday 8 January 2027, 1:56–3:04 pm. The two backups are Monday 26 October 2026, 2:54–3:45 pm, and Monday 12 October 2026, 9:14–10:40 am.

Use the Mercury-Moon months to build steadily: clear records, honest speech with customers, one thing done well before the next. Your chart shows career status as the slower area, so expect reputation to grow by repetition. Mercury is best pacified by mantra and charity, offered gently if it appeals to you. Your chart advises against Emerald. Wear any gemstone only after an astrologer checks it against your full chart.

The window runs from 12:41 to 2:07 pm, 86 minutes, with Aquarius rising, Uttara Bhadrapada nakshatra and Shukla Ekadashi. Rahu kaal that day is 10:46 am to 12:06 pm. Keep every important act out of it: no signing, no ribbon, no first sale. The gap between 12:06 and 12:41 pm is for quiet preparation only. Begin the real act at 12:41 pm or just after, and finish the signature, the registration or the first sale well before 2:07 pm.

Choose the one act that means the business has begun, and do it first, at the opening of the window. Everything else can follow in the same hour. Your Moon is strong in the house of initiative, and Chandra-Mangala Yoga stays active through the Mercury and Moon period until December 2027. Bold, personal first moves suit you better than delegated ones. Aquarius rising is also the sign of your own house of gains.

Do the cleaning and arranging the day before or in the morning, and keep the premises tidy. Place a lamp and a small image or picture of Ganesha and Lakshmi, as is customary. Offer a short prayer before the window opens, so that at 12:41 pm you only have to begin. Face east or north while you do the main act, as tradition suggests. Make the first sale, or accept the first payment, with a good grace. Put that first money in the cash box and do not spend it that day. Avoid arguments, and avoid lending or borrowing, on the day itself.

Because Mercury is weak in your chart, check every paper twice the evening before, so the signing is a formality. If you want a gentle supportive practice, chant a Mercury mantra and give some charity on a Wednesday. Wear Red Coral, your life stone, only after an astrologer has checked it against your full chart. Emerald is best avoided. If Friday 20 November cannot happen, the next choice is Thursday 26 November 2026, 12:17 to 1:27 pm, and there Rahu kaal begins at 1:27 pm, so do not linger.
