📤 Which day should I resign from my job?
नौकरी से इस्तीफ़ा देने का सही दिन • computed from live planetary positions
Resign on a Monday, Wednesday or Friday on a favourable tithi, avoiding Tuesday (Mars — friction with authority) and your Chandrashtama days, when misunderstandings peak. A resignation is a transition, not a beginning — so the rules are gentler, but the day still colours how the exit is received.

How this muhurta is determined
Resigning is an act of separation, and the goal of its muhurta is a clean, well-received exit that protects relationships and references. Tuesday is the day most avoided — Mars inclines both sides toward heat. Saturday endings tend to drag: notice periods stretch, dues arrive late.
The Moon matters personally: on your Chandrashtama days, communication misfires and words land wrong — never hand in papers then. A day with Sampat or Mitra tara from your birth star favours a settlement in your interest.
Deliver the resignation in the first half of the day, in a Shubh or Labh Choghadiya, so the conversation that follows has daylight to settle in.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does resigning have a muhurta like joining does?
Yes, but a lighter one. Beginnings bind you to their moment; endings mostly need calm — a clear day, a favourable Moon for your rashi, and a weekday that does not inflame the parting (avoid Tuesday).
Should I wait out my Chandrashtama before resigning?
Yes, if it is a matter of a day or two. Chandrashtama is when your judgement and others' perception of you are at their weakest — a poor moment for a career-defining conversation.
