What is Muhurta?

Muhurta literally means “moment” or “auspicious time window.” In Vedic astrology, a muhurta is a specific period of the day considered especially favorable for starting important activities. All five below are calculated from your location’s actual sunrise/sunset, not fixed clock times.
