Abhijit Muhūrta
A short auspicious window around solar noon, considered favourable for most undertakings.
What it means
Abhijit is the eighth of fifteen equal muhūrtas of the daytime, straddling local solar noon (about 24 minutes long). It is a reliable general-purpose auspicious slot when nothing better is available — though tradition notes it is weaker on Wednesdays.
