Pratipada Tithi (प्रतिपदा)

Krishna Paksha

First lunar day after new/full moon - symbolizes fresh beginnings and initiatory energy. Ruled by Brahma (creator) in Shukla Paksha and Agni (fire) in Krishna Paksha. Classical texts highly favor this for property transactions, starting businesses, laying foundations, and new ventures. The energy is raw and initiatory. Shukla Pratipada is more auspicious than Krishna. Avoid completion ceremonies, endings, and final rituals. Excellent for Griha Pravesh (housewarming) and starting education.
