The right moment,
found for you

Every day carries auspicious and inauspicious stretches. DashaGuru's muhurat finder reads choghadiya and hora together — for your city's actual sunrise — and tells you when to begin.

Two clocks of the day

Choghadiya and hora, briefly.

🕗

Choghadiya

Day and night each split into 8 parts of about 1.5 hours. Amrit, Shubh, Labh and Char favour beginnings; Rog, Kaal and Udveg are best avoided.

🪐

Hora

Each hour belongs to a planet. Jupiter's hora suits money and learning, Venus suits love and celebration, Mercury suits paperwork and deals.

🚫

Rahukaal & blocks

The daily Rahukaal and other avoid-windows are flagged automatically — so a good choghadiya never hides a bad overlap.

Six kinds of beginnings

Tell Pandit ji what you are starting.

💍

Vivah & sagai

Ceremony-adjacent moments around weddings and engagements.

🏠

Griha pravesh

Entering a new home at the right stretch of the day.

🪔

Business opening

Launches, first invoices, shop openings — Labh and Amrit first.

🚗

Vehicle purchase

Taking delivery in a favourable choghadiya.

✈️

Travel & journeys

Starting journeys outside Rahukaal and Udveg.

📝

Deals & paperwork

Signings and registrations in Mercury-friendly hours.

Personalised, not a printed panchang

A generic panchang app shows the same muhurat to everyone. DashaGuru computes the day from your city's actual sunrise and sunset — and Pandit ji can weigh a chosen moment against your own chart, with tara bala and chandra bala from your janma nakshatra.

Frequently asked questions

Your doubts, answered.

What is choghadiya? +
Choghadiya divides the time between sunrise and sunset — and sunset to the next sunrise — into 8 parts each, of roughly 1.5 hours. Each part carries a quality: Amrit, Shubh, Labh and Char are favourable; Rog, Kaal and Udveg are avoided for new beginnings.
What is the difference between choghadiya and hora? +
Choghadiya rates stretches of the day as favourable or not; hora assigns each hour to a planet, so you can match the hour to the work — Jupiter for finance, Venus for celebration, Mercury for paperwork. DashaGuru reads both together and shows where they agree.
Why not just use a free panchang app? +
A printed panchang is computed for one city and everyone at once. DashaGuru calculates choghadiya, hora and Rahukaal from your city's actual sunrise — and can also check the moment against your own janma nakshatra (tara bala, chandra bala), which no generic table can.
Which activities does the muhurat finder cover? +
Six kinds of beginnings: vivah and sagai-related moments, griha pravesh, business openings, vehicle purchase, travel, and deals/paperwork — each scored by the choghadiya–hora combination suited to it.
