Time windows
Rahu Kaal
09:02 — 10:18
Traditionally a rest hour — a good time to postpone starting new work.
Abhijit Muhurat
11:14 — 11:54
The clearest window around solar noon — traditionally favoured for important decisions.
Amrit choghadiya
14:06 — 15:22
The day's Amrit choghadiya slot — considered auspicious for new beginnings. (Not the nakshatra-based Amrit Kalam.)
Brahma Muhurat
04:39 — 05:35
The pre-dawn window traditionally used for reflection and quiet work.
Yamaganda
12:50 — 14:06
Traditionally avoided for beginning new work.
Gulika Kaal

Another traditional rest window in the daily cycle.
