Guru Pushyamrita Yoga

Guru Pushyamrita Yoga (गुरु पुष्यामृत योग) is formed when the Moon is in Pushya nakshatra on a Thursday, the day of Guru. Muhurta Chintamani counts Pushya on Thursday among the yogas given by the ancients sarvārtha-siddhyai, for success in every aim, and Narada names it among the seven siddhi yogas of the weekdays.

Pushya itself is praised above the other nakshatras. Shripati, quoted in the Piyushadhara commentary on Muhurta Chintamani, says that even when it is pierced by a graha, joined with the inauspicious or under an adverse tara, Pushya surely brings success in every undertaking, setting aside only marriage. Vasishtha says the same.

Not for marriage: Muhurta Chintamani tells to avoid Guru Pushya for a wedding, just as it avoids Ashvini on a Tuesday for entering a new house and Rohini on a Saturday for a journey.

जीवेऽन्त्यमैत्राश्व्यदितीज्यधिष्ण्यं शुक्रेऽन्त्यमैत्राश्व्यदितिश्रवोभम्। शनौ श्रुतिब्राह्मसमीरभानि सर्वार्थसिद्ध्यै कथितानि पूर्वैः॥

jīve'ntyamaitrāśvyaditījyadhiṣṇyaṃ śukre'ntyamaitrāśvyaditiśravobham, śanau śrutibrāhmasamīrabhāni sarvārthasiddhyai kathitāni pūrvaiḥ.

"On Thursday Revati, Anuradha, Ashvini, Punarvasu and Pushya; on Friday Revati, Anuradha, Ashvini, Punarvasu and Shravana; on Saturday Shravana, Rohini and Swati: these the ancients declared for success in every aim."

Muhurta Chintamani 1.29

गृहप्रवेशे यात्रायां विवाहे च यथाक्रमम्। भौमाश्विनीं शनौ ब्राह्मं गुरौ पुष्यं विवर्जयेत्॥

gṛhapraveśe yātrāyāṃ vivāhe ca yathākramam, bhaumāśvinīṃ śanau brāhmaṃ gurau puṣyaṃ vivarjayet.

"For entering a new house, for a journey and for marriage, in that order, avoid Ashvini on a Tuesday, Rohini on a Saturday and Pushya on a Thursday."

Muhurta Chintamani 1.22

ग्रहेण विद्धोऽप्यशुभान्वितोऽपि विरुद्धतारोऽपि विलोमगोऽपि। करोत्यवश्यं सकलार्थसिद्धिं विहाय पाणिग्रहमेव पुष्यः॥

graheṇa viddho'pyaśubhānvito'pi viruddhatāro'pi vilomago'pi, karoty avaśyaṃ sakalārthasiddhiṃ vihāya pāṇigraham eva puṣyaḥ.

"Even pierced by a graha, joined with the inauspicious, of an adverse tara or moving against, Pushya surely brings success in every aim, setting aside only marriage."

Shripati, in the Piyushadhara on Muhurta Chintamani
