Choghadiya, also known as Chogadia or Chaughadia, is a traditional Hindu time system used to find auspicious timings (muhurat) for important activities. The word "Choghadiya" literally means "four ghadi" (one ghadi equals 24 minutes), representing a time period of approximately 96 minutes.
There are seven types of Choghadiya periods, each governed by a different planet and having distinct qualities:
Choghadiya is calculated separately for day (sunrise to sunset) and night (sunset to next sunrise). The daytime period is divided into 8 segments starting from sunrise, while nighttime has its own 8 segments starting from sunset. The sequence and nature of these periods differ between day and night, following the movement of planetary influences.
In addition to the Choghadiya system, Vedic astrology identifies three major inauspicious periods each day:
Even if a Choghadiya period appears auspicious, if it overlaps with any of these veto periods, it should be avoided for important activities. Our app automatically identifies and marks all overlapping periods for your convenience.
