How choghadiya works in New Jersey

Choghadiya divides the time from sunrise to sunset into eight equal periods, and the night from sunset to the next sunrise into eight more. It is anchored to the local sun, not to Indian Standard Time, so the same weekday order lands on different clock times in every New Jersey city, and the periods stretch in summer and shrink in winter. The order for each weekday never changes:

Day	Day choghadiya order (from sunrise)	Night choghadiya order (from sunset)
Sunday	Udveg, Char, Labh, Amrit, Kaal, Shubh, Rog, Udveg	Shubh, Amrit, Char, Rog, Kaal, Labh, Udveg, Shubh
Monday	Amrit, Kaal, Shubh, Rog, Udveg, Char, Labh, Amrit	Char, Rog, Kaal, Labh, Udveg, Shubh, Amrit, Char
Tuesday	Rog, Udveg, Char, Labh, Amrit, Kaal, Shubh, Rog	Kaal, Labh, Udveg, Shubh, Amrit, Char, Rog, Kaal

Choghadiya in New Jersey: common questions

Which choghadiya should I use in New Jersey?

Use the page of the city nearest to you: Edison, Jersey City. Within the same metro the periods differ by only a few minutes, because choghadiya is computed from the local sunrise and sunset.

Is the choghadiya the same everywhere in New Jersey?

The weekday order of the eight periods is identical everywhere, in New Jersey and in India alike. What changes from city to city is the clock time of each period, which follows each place’s own sunrise and sunset and shifts as you move east or west across New Jersey.

Which choghadiya are good and which should be avoided?

Amrit, Shubh and Labh are auspicious for beginning new work; Char is fine for travel and routine tasks. Rog, Kaal and Udveg are best avoided for new beginnings, though work already underway need not stop.
