What each Choghadiya means
What is Choghadiya?
Choghadiya is a traditional Vedic timing system that divides the daylight hours and the night hours into eight equal parts each. The word comes from Sanskrit: Cho (four) and Ghadiya (a unit of approximately 24 minutes), though in practice each slot spans one-eighth of the daylight or nighttime period and therefore varies in length by season and latitude.
Each slot is assigned one of seven types - Amrit, Shubh, Labh, Char, Kaal, Rog, and Udveg - based on the weekday and a rotating sequence passed down through Jyotish tradition. The sequence shifts by weekday so that the same type does not always dominate the same time of day.
Choghadiya is widely used across India and by the NRI community worldwide for choosing the right moment to travel, begin a business meeting, make an important purchase, or start a significant undertaking. In Imphal, local sunrise and sunset define the boundaries of each slot, so the exact clock times differ from those in other cities even on the same day.
For general daily activities, the Choghadiya table is a practical and quick guide. For life events such as a marriage, a housewarming, or a major investment, a proper muhurat calculated from the birth chart of the individual or couple offers a much deeper and more personalised auspiciousness check.
