Frequently asked questions
What is Choghadiya?
Choghadiya divides daytime and night into eight parts each, every part ruled by a planet. Amrit, Shubh, Labh and Char are considered auspicious, while Rog, Kaal and Udveg are avoided for new beginnings.
Which Choghadiya is best for travel?
Char (Chanchal) is traditionally preferred for travel and movement, while Labh suits business and gains and Amrit suits any auspicious activity.
Does Choghadiya change by city?
Yes. Choghadiya periods are derived from local sunrise and sunset, so the timings differ for every location and date.
