Hora (planetary hours)
Each hora here is a 60-minute planetary hour counted from sunrise — the classical Kala Hora sequence, where the first hora of the day belongs to the weekday's lord. Some panchangs instead divide day and night separately into twelve unequal horas each.

What is Choghadiya?
Choghadiya divides the day and the night into eight equal parts each — roughly ninety minutes per part. Seven choghadiyas — Udveg, Chal, Labh, Amrit, Kaal, Shubh, and Rog — rotate in a fixed cycle, and each weekday enters the cycle at a different point, which is why Monday's table differs from Tuesday's. Amrit, Shubh, and Labh are held auspicious for new beginnings; Chal favours travel; Udveg, Kaal, and Rog are best avoided for important starts.
How Rahu Kalam is calculated
The span from sunrise to sunset (dinamana) is divided into eight equal parts, and one weekday-dependent part is Rahu Kalam. Because the calculation is anchored to the local sunrise and sunset, the window shifts every day and differs between cities. Tradition avoids beginning journeys, ventures, and important paperwork during it. Yamaganda and Gulika Kalam are sibling windows computed the same way from their own weekday tables.
Is Abhijit Muhurat always auspicious?
Abhijit is the eighth of the fifteen muhurtas of the day — about 48 minutes straddling local solar noon on a twelve-hour day. It is treated as a self-certified auspicious window for most work, with one caveat: several classical traditions void Abhijit on Wednesdays, so this page flags it rather than listing it that day.
How the hora table works
Each hora is a planetary hour. The first hora of the day belongs to the weekday's lord — the Sun on Sunday, the Moon on Monday, and so on — and the sequence then follows the classical order Sun, Venus, Mercury, Moon, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, repeating through the day and night. Horas of Jupiter, Venus, Mercury, and the Moon favour auspicious work; those of the Sun, Mars, and Saturn call for care.
