The clearest window around solar noon — traditionally favoured for important decisions.
Amrit choghadiya
14:27 — 15:44
The day's Amrit choghadiya slot — considered auspicious for new beginnings. (Not the nakshatra-based Amrit Kalam.)

The pre-dawn window traditionally used for reflection and quiet work.
Yamaganda
13:09 — 14:27
