What is Choghadiya? · चौघड़िया क्या है?

Choghadiya is the everyday muhurat — the daytime (sunrise to sunset) and the night (sunset to next sunrise) are each split into eight windows of roughly 90 minutes, every window ruled by a planet with a fixed nature. Families use it to time small but important things — a journey, a purchase, a phone call, signing a paper — without commissioning a full muhurta.

चौघड़िया रोज़मर्रा का मुहूर्त है — दिन और रात दोनों को आठ-आठ भागों में बाँटा जाता है, और हर भाग किसी ग्रह से शासित होता है। यात्रा, खरीदारी या छोटे शुभ कार्यों के लिए अमृत, शुभ या लाभ चौघड़िया चुनें।

How to use choghadiya

  • For auspicious work, start within an Amrit, Shubh or Labh window
  • For travel and movement, Char is the classic choice
  • Avoid Udveg, Rog and Kaal for new beginnings
  • Begin the task inside the window — it need not finish within it
