Choghadiya — An 8-Part Daily Timing System
A Vedic system dividing both day and night into 8 equal parts each, with every part assigned one of 7 recurring types — auspicious, inauspicious, or neutral.

Amrit

Shubh

Labh
Neutral
Chal

Kaal

Like Rahu Kaal, Choghadiya is calculated by dividing daylight into 8 equal parts (and night into another 8). Which type occupies the first slot depends on the weekday's ruling Graha, then the 7 types rotate through in a fixed order. Because it depends on local sunrise/sunset, an accurate reading needs a live Panchang for your city.
For major life events, a full Muhurta reading goes further, factoring in Tithi, Nakshatra and birth-chart details too.
