Vedic Time Measurement

The Seven Choghadiyas & Their Cosmic Qualities

The word ‘Choghadiya’ is derived from Chau-Ghadi (four Ghadis). In traditional Jyotish computation, one day (24 hours) is divided into 60 Ghadis. Each Choghadiya Muhurat spans approximately 3.75 Ghadis (~90 minutes) governed by planetary rulers.

  • Amrit (अमृत)

    Most auspicious

    Signification: Nectar of Immortality. Traditionally considered auspicious for sacred rites, inaugurations, marriage ceremonies and long journeys.

  • Shubh (शुभ)

    Good

    Signification: Pure & Auspicious. Ideal for religious observances, rituals, marriage talks, entering new residences, and sanctified ceremonies.

  • Labha (लाभ)

    Gainful

    Signification: Profit & Expansion. Exceptional for commencing business ventures, signing contracts, academic entrance exams, and asset accumulation.

  • Char (चल)

    Neutral / dynamic

    Signification: Mobility & Movement. Auspicious for movement, short trips, shifting transport vehicles, and dynamic physical journeys. Avoid stationary foundations.

  • Rog (रोग)

    Inauspicious

    Signification: Disease & Debility. Traditionally avoided for new beginnings and disputes; considered suitable for competition and clearing debts. Never delay medical care because of a muhurat.

  • Kaal (काल)

    Destructive

    Signification: Time & Ruin. Governed by Rahu/Saturn; traditionally avoided for new initiatives and holy rituals.

  • Udveg (उद्वेग)

    Anxiety

    Signification: Turmoil & Agitation (Surya / Shani tension). Traditionally associated with restlessness; considered suitable for government work and discouraged for celebrations, marriage rituals or partnerships.

Varjya Rule (Solar Precedence)The first Choghadiya of everyday is governed by the day’s weekday lord (e.g., Mangal on Tuesdays, Ravi on Sundays). While choosing a Muhurat, ensure it does not overlap with local Rahu Kaal, as Rahu Kaal takes precedence over even Shubh and Labha Choghadiyas.
