Frequently asked questions about Dagdha Tithi Dosha
What is a Dagdha Tithi?
A burnt tithi - a specific tithi falling on a specific weekday. The classical pairing is Sunday with Dwadashi, Monday with Ekadashi, Tuesday with Panchami, Wednesday with Tritiya, Thursday with Shashthi, Friday with Ashtami and Saturday with Navami.
Why those particular pairings?
They come from the muhurta literature, where certain tithi and weekday combinations are held to cancel each other's auspiciousness. The list is traditional and is simply learnt rather than derived from a rule you can reason out.
Does birth on one matter?
Very little. It is a muhurta-level caution applied to birth, and each combination recurs regularly through the year. The registry itself calls it a minor factor for the life as a whole, balanced by the rest of the panchang and chart.
Is there a parihara?
There is a traditional one, and it is simple. Given how light the birth-level reading is, most astrologers would not press it. If someone proposes an expensive ritual for a Dagdha Tithi birth, that is a reason to seek another opinion.
When should I actually avoid these combinations?
When choosing a date for something significant. Dagdha Tithi is one of several factors a proper muhurat check weighs, and avoiding it for a wedding or a launch is normal practice.
What is Dagdha Tithi Dosha?
Dagdha Tithi Dosha is read when a person is born on a Dagdha (burnt) Tithi - a lunar day that falls on a specific weekday and is avoided in classical muhurta. The pairing is: Sunday–Dwadashi, Monday–Ekadashi, Tuesday–Panchami, Wednesday–Tritiya, Thursday–Shashthi, Friday–Ashtami, Saturday–Navami. Birth on that burnt tithi for its weekday is the dosha.
It is a muhurta-level caution, not a major planetary curse. The tradition asks for awareness and simple pacification rather than fear about the whole destiny. Natives can still thrive; the mark is about the tithi–weekday combination at birth, which is traditionally softened with charity and the relevant shanti.
How strongly it matters depends on the rest of the panchang and the birth chart. A strong Lagna and supportive Moon keep it mild. Enter your exact birth date, time and place so both the tithi and the weekday are calculated correctly, and read Dagdha Tithi within the full chart - a timing note to honour, not a defining flaw of the person. Charity on the relevant weekday and simple tithi shanti are the usual, proportionate response. The rest of a strong chart matters far more than this single burnt-tithi mark alone. Keep the response simple and proportionate to a muhurta caution.
Dagdha Tithi Dosha is this one affliction on its own page, not a full dosha scan and not a neighbour with a similar name. Weigh it next to Doshas in Kundli and Kundli remedies. The chart those placements sit on is the Kundli Maker.
