Choghadiya divides the day into 8 equal time windows and the night into 8 more — each ruled by a planet and classified as auspicious, neutral, or inauspicious. The sequence repeats every week based on the day of the week. Times differ by city because they are calculated from local sunrise and sunset.
Labh (Mercury) is best for business, trade, and financial decisions. Amrit (Moon) is the most auspicious overall — ideal for any new start, investment, or important commitment. Shubh (Jupiter) suits weddings, agreements, and ceremonial occasions.
Kaal (Saturn) is best avoided for new ventures — it is the most inauspicious window. Rog (Mars) and Udveg (Sun) are also inauspicious; avoid signing contracts or starting important work in these windows. Routine and existing tasks are fine in any period.
