auspicious date

Favorable chosen moment

An auspicious date is a day considered favorable or lucky for important undertakings—weddings, business launches, moving into a new home.

The concept is especially prominent in Chinese, Indian, and other Asian cultures, where astrologers or almanacs identify dates with positive cosmic alignments: They consulted a fortune teller to find an auspicious date for the ceremony.
