In Austin (30.27°N, 97.74°W) the sun rises at 06:46 am and sets at 08:27 pm today. Choghadiya divides that daylight into eight windows and the night into eight more — Amrit, Shubh, Labh and Char are favourable, Rog, Kaal and Udveg are avoided — so every timing below is set by Austin’s own sunrise and sunset and differs from any other city.
Choghadiya is a Vedic muhurta system that splits the day and night into eight roughly 90-minute segments, each ruled by a planet and marked auspicious or inauspicious. It lets you pick a good moment to begin travel, work, shopping or any new task without casting a full birth chart — which is why it is one of the most consulted timings across India.
The favourable choghadiyas are Amrit (the most auspicious), Shubh, Labh (gain) and Char (movable, good for travel); the ones traditionally avoided are Rog, Kaal and Udveg. The day segments run from sunrise to sunset and the night segments from sunset to the next sunrise, so the exact windows shift with Austin’s real sunrise and sunset every day.
To use it, match your activity to the next favourable window — Amrit or Shubh for auspicious beginnings, Labh for business and money, Char for journeys — and avoid Rog, Kaal and Udveg. Every timing on this page is computed from Austin’s exact coordinates and timezone and refreshed daily.
Amrit is the most auspicious, followed by Shubh and Labh. Look for the next Amrit or Shubh window in the day and night tables above for Austin.
Rog, Kaal and Udveg are considered inauspicious for starting important work. Char is neutral and is generally fine, especially for travel.
Day choghadiya divides sunrise to sunset into eight parts; night choghadiya divides sunset to the next sunrise. Both depend on Austin’s local sunrise and sunset, so they change a little every day.
The order of the choghadiyas is fixed by weekday, but the exact clock times differ by location because they follow local sunrise and sunset — which is why this page is calculated specifically for Austin.
