How to use Choghadiya in Santa Clara, CA

| Choghadiya | Ruler | Best for |

Abhijit Muhurat
The 8th of the 15 daytime muhurtas, centred on local noon. It is considered powerful enough to neutralise most doshas, so it is a reliable fallback when no other muhurat fits, except on Wednesdays.
Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda and Gulika
Each is one-eighth of the daytime, falling at a different point depending on the weekday. Even an Amrit Choghadiya is traditionally avoided when it overlaps Rahu Kaal.
Tip: for marriages, housewarming (griha pravesh) or buying property, astrologers also check the tithi and nakshatra in the Panchang.
