In any Hindu Lunar Calendar year three and half days (sade teen muhurat) are considered highly auspicious as per traditional Vedic astrology followed in North and western parts of India.
On these days there is no need to look for auspicious time. Each second on the day is highly auspicious. The day is chosen for any new or good work without any ritual or asking the priest. The Sun (Surya) and Moon (Chandra) are astrologically believed to be at their most exalted position on the day.
The days are Gudhi Padwa; Akshay Tritiya; Vijaya Dashami and Bali Pratipada, a day after Dewali.
