Today's Choghadiya · Tuesday, 1 September · Columbus
Choghadiya is a Vedic day-planner that divides daytime and night-time into eight slots each (16 total), marking every slot auspicious or inauspicious. Amrit, Shubh and Labh are auspicious; Rog, Kaal and Udveg are usually avoided; Char is neutral. Slot timings shift daily with sunrise and sunset and by city — Daanyam computes them from the Swiss Ephemeris.
आज का चौघड़िया — दिन और रात के शुभ (Amrit, Shubh, Labh) और अशुभ (Rog, Kaal, Udveg) समय, आपके शहर के सूर्योदय-सूर्यास्त से गणना किया गया।

Aaj ka choghadiya lists today's eight day slots and eight night slots with their timings and quality. The auspicious ones — Amrit, Shubh, Labh — are best for new work; Rog, Kaal and Udveg are usually avoided. Exact times depend on your city's sunrise and sunset, shown live above for your location.
Choghadiya divides the day and night into eight parts each. Read it by finding the current slot: if it is Amrit, Shubh or Labh the window is auspicious for starting tasks; Char is neutral; Rog, Kaal and Udveg are best avoided for important beginnings. Timings change daily with sunrise and sunset.
Shubh Choghadiya is the slot named 'Shubh', one of the auspicious windows for ceremonies, purchases and travel. Along with Amrit and Labh it is preferred for starting something new. Today's exact Shubh window for your city is shown in the live table above.
Amrit, Shubh and Labh are the auspicious Choghadiya; Char is neutral and fine for travel; Rog, Kaal and Udveg are usually avoided for important new beginnings. This classification is fixed, but the clock time of each slot changes every day with sunrise and sunset.
Choghadiya splits the time between sunrise and sunset into eight equal day slots, and sunset to next sunrise into eight night slots, each with a planetary lord and quality set by weekday. Daanyam computes sunrise and sunset from the Swiss Ephemeris for your exact coordinates.
How Daanyam computes this
Daanyam calculates Choghadiya using the Swiss Ephemeris — the same astronomical engine used by professional astrologers — applied to your exact location's sunrise and sunset and time zone, not generic almanac tables. See how we compute →
Computed from each city's own sunrise and timezone — not IST converted.
