Signing a contract is the strongest commitment in the career stack — classical sources treat it almost as rigorously as marriage.
Classical Rationale
Of the four Sthira (fixed) nakshatras — Rohini (4), U.Phalguni (12), U.Ashadha (21), U.Bhadrapada (26) — all four are the foundation of the contract-signing preferred list. These are the nakshatras of permanence and reliability, exactly what a binding agreement needs. Pushya (8), Hasta (13), Anuradha (17), and Shravana (22) round out the list with grace and friendship overtones. Mercury hora (writing) leads; Jupiter hora (wisdom behind the commitment) follows; Venus hora (smooth handshake) closes the trio. Bharani (death) and Mula (uprooting) are hard vetoes — signing a contract under either of those nakshatras is classically described as setting the agreement up to fail.
How This Differs from Other Career Muhurtas
A contract sits at the strict end of the career spectrum — it shares the hard-veto pattern with first-day-at-job (entering a "new home") and business launch. The closest sibling is first-day, but contracts care more about Mercury hora (the document itself) where first-day cares about Sun hora (visibility). Salary negotiation is the unconstrained relative — nothing is binding there.
What to Avoid
Bharani (2) and Mula (19) are the absolute vetoes — never sign here. Avoid Ardra (6), Ashlesha (9), P.Phalguni (11), Jyeshtha (18), P.Ashadha (20), and P.Bhadrapada (25). Skip Rikta tithis (4, 9, 14), Ashtami (8), and Amavasya (30). Vishti karana is a hard veto — wait for the next karana even if everything else looks favourable. Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, and Gulika Kaal overrule all positive factors.

Note: Muhurta raises the probability of a favourable outcome; it does not replace preparation. Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, and Vishti karana override all positive factors and force a window to "Avoid".
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I sign a contract during Rahu Kaal if it's the only window the other party offers?
Classical sources are unambiguous: no. If the other party insists, this is itself a quiet signal worth heeding — counter-propose a window 90 minutes earlier or later. If you genuinely cannot move it, sign provisionally and have a re-signing ceremony in a favourable window later. The first signature is what matters classically.
Does it matter where I sign — at home, at the office, in a notary?
Place matters less than time for classical muhurta purposes. The act of signing IS the moment — the location is the container. That said, signing in a direction favoured by your day's Disha Shool is conventionally avoided; check your panchang.
My job offer requires acceptance by a specific date. How do I balance that with muhurta?
Look at the next 30 days through the per-activity calendar on this page — even within a 7-day window there is usually one window of "good" or higher. If absolutely no good window exists before the deadline, sign in the least-bad slot (avoiding Rahu Kaal and Vishti at minimum) and treat the first day at the new job as your real muhurta.
