Muhūrta

Day windows from true sunrise and sunset — abhijit at midday, rāhu / yamagaṇḍa / gulika, 30 named muhūrtas, choghaḍiyā and hora.

Timing coordinates only — not a substitute for a learned jyotiṣī.

These windows are conventions of the tradition, computed honestly — not warnings, and not for sale. Nothing bad is predicted to happen in a kāla. ये घड़ियाँ परम्परा की संधाराएँ हैं, ईमानदारी से गणित — न चेतावनी, न बिक्री की वस्तु।

Muhurta Today · Common Questions मुहूर्त-प्रश्नाः

What is muhurta in Vedic astrology?
A muhūrta is a 48-minute unit of Vedic time — there are 30 muhūrtas in a solar day. In astrological practice, each muhūrta carries a quality assessment (auspicious, neutral, or inauspicious) based on the concurrent tithi, nakṣatra, yoga, and karaṇa. The system is codified in Muhūrta-Cintāmaṇi by Rāma Daivajña.
What is Abhijit Muhurta and when does it occur?
Abhijit muhūrta is the most auspicious 48-minute window of the day, centered around solar noon. Its exact start and end depend on the day's sunrise and sunset, so the times shift daily. It is considered universally auspicious — capable of overriding most minor inauspicious indicators.
What is Brahma Muhurta and what is it good for?
Brahma muhūrta spans the 96 to 48 minutes before sunrise — roughly 4:30–5:15 am depending on location and season. It is the final two muhūrtas of the night. Classical texts recommend it for meditation, study, and spiritual practice because the mind is naturally settled and the prāṇa-vāyu is active.
How do I find a good muhurta for marriage (vivah muhurat)?
Marriage muhūrta selection requires checking the tithi (avoid certain tithis per Muhūrta-Cintāmaṇi), nakṣatra (27 nakshatras have different suitability for vivāha), yoga, karaṇa, Rāhu-kālam exclusion, and the lagna at the hour of the ceremony. A qualified Jyotiṣī should combine all these factors with both charts.
