The sun rises in San Jose at 06:03 and sets at 20:25 today, so each of the eight day choghadiyas lasts about 108 minutes. Being Sunday, the day cycle enters at Udveg and the night cycle opens with Shubh after sunset at 20:25. The night chart runs until the next sunrise, so its late windows carry past midnight into tomorrow's early hours — those times are marked +1 in the table.

How the choghadiya chart works in San Jose

Every window above is one-eighth of San Jose's actual day or night, cut from today's real sunrise and sunset — not from a fixed 06:00 to 18:00 template. That is why the same weekday shows different times here than in another city, and different times here next month.

Use the chart at the moment of starting: pick Amrit, Shubh or Labh for important beginnings, Chal for setting out, and let routine work run through whatever window is passing. The current window is marked live whenever you open this page.

A favourable choghadiya can still overlap the day's Rahu Kalam, which follows a different rule — the one-line strip below shows today's Rahu Kalam for San Jose, and its full page covers Yamaganda and Gulika Kalam too.

Frequently asked questions

Which choghadiya is running now in San Jose?
Right now San Jose is in the Kaal choghadiya (Inauspicious), which lasts until 15:02. The chart above shows every remaining window of the day and night.
Which choghadiya is best for travel today in San Jose?
Chal — today 07:51 to 09:39 in the day chart — is the classical travel window, and Amrit, Shubh and Labh serve just as well. Keep the departure clear of Rahu Kalam, which runs 18:38–20:25 in San Jose today.
When does tonight's choghadiya start in San Jose?
Tonight's chart begins at sunset, 20:25, with Shubh, and runs in eight windows until the next sunrise. Windows after midnight are marked +1 — they belong to tonight's chart even though the clock date has changed.
Why do the choghadiya timings change every day?
Because San Jose's sunrise and sunset move a little every day, and the windows are cut from that span. The sequence of names repeats weekly, but the clock times never repeat exactly.
Is San Jose's choghadiya chart valid for nearby towns?
Close enough for everyday use if the town shares San Jose's longitude and horizon — a few minutes' difference at most. For exact times, or for towns further out, use a chart computed for that place's own coordinates.
