What is the best time of the day today?

Abhijit Muhurat — roughly the middle eighth of the daylight — is regarded as the most favourable single window of the day for beginnings, shown above. Morning Brahma Muhurat is its counterpart for spiritual practice.

Does Abhijit Muhurat work on every weekday?

It is favourable on every day except Wednesday, when it overlaps the still stronger Abhijit-free rule in many traditions and is treated as invalid or weakened. On Wednesdays pick another Shubh window.

What if the Shubh window overlaps Rahu Kaal?

It cannot: Abhijit sits in the middle of the daylight while Rahu Kaal never occupies the middle eighth. The other favourable windows are listed with their Choghadiya labels on the Choghadiya page.
