Muhurta for digging of earth: One should not start digging when earth is sleeping.

Earth is
said to sleep on 5th, 7th, 9th, 10th, 21st and 24th day from solar ingress day or Sankranti day.
Alternatively, earth is said to sleep if Moon’s nakshatra is 5 th, 7th, 9th, 12th, 19th
th
or 26 from Sun’s Nakshatra on a particular day.
Havan muhurta: Add the numbers tithi plus vaar, i.e weekday (taking Sunday as 1) plus 1
and then divide this sum by 4. If the remainder is 0 or 3, the fire dwells in the earth and is
good for havan and the performer gets happiness. If remainder is 1, fire dwells in the paataal
and is bad for havan as it indicates loss of wealth thereafter. If remainder is 2, fire dwells in
the Aakaash and is bad for havan as it indicates demise in the family.
Havan ahuti: (the spices etc. that are poured into fire in one lot). Note the count from Sun’s
nakshatra to the day’s nakshatra (Moon). Allot 3 points to Sun and same to the other planets
in the order of day lords. The ahuti of the ending graha should be propitiated.
Example: Suppose Sun’s nakshatra is 24 (satabhisha), and Moon’s nakshatra is 11
(P.phalguni)
Counting from 24 to 11 = 15
Allotting 15 among planets @ 3 each commencing from Sun., i.e. Sun 3, Moon 3, Mars 3,
Mercury 3, Jupiter 3. The count of 15 finishes at Jupiter. The ahuti should be aimed at this
ending graha Jupiter. The ending graha should be propitiated–may it be malefic or benefic.
