What is Muhurtham (Choghadiya)?
Muhurtham (Choghadiya) divides each day and night into 8 equal muhurta slots. The word comes from “char ghadi” — each slot spans approximately 1.5 hours. Unlike Rahu Kalam which marks only a single inauspicious period, Muhurtham provides a complete time map of the entire day, showing when to act and when to wait.
Amrit
Best — all activities, health, wealth
Shubh
Auspicious — ceremonies, new beginnings
Labh
Profit — business, investments
Char
Travel — movement, journeys
Udveg
Avoid — anxiety, government matters
Kaal
Avoid — inauspicious for most tasks
Rog
Avoid — illness, conflict
The sequence of Muhurtham slots changes with each weekday, calculated from local sunrise for day slots and sunset for night slots. Amrit is the most auspicious — ideal for beginning any important work. Rog, Kaal, and Udveg are inauspicious and best avoided for new ventures.
