Abhijit Muhurat is considered one of the most auspicious time periods in Hindu astrology. The word "Abhijit" (अभिजित) means "the victorious one" and is the name of the 22nd (or sometimes considered an additional) Nakshatra.
This muhurat occurs during the middle of the day, approximately during the 8th muhurat (time division) of the day, and lasts for about 48 minutes. It is believed that any work started during this period will be successful, regardless of other planetary positions.
According to Vedic scriptures, Lord Krishna blessed the Pandavas by revealing that Abhijit Muhurat is always favorable, making it an exception to the usual requirement of checking multiple planetary positions and Panchang elements.
The day (from sunrise to sunset) is divided into 15 equal parts called Muhurats. Each Muhurat lasts approximately 48 minutes, though the exact duration varies based on the day length.
Abhijit Muhurat is the 8th Muhurat of the day, occurring roughly in the middle of the day, typically between 11:30 AM to 12:18 PM (depending on sunrise and sunset times for your location).
The timing varies based on geographical location, as it depends on local sunrise and sunset times. Always calculate for your specific location for accuracy.
Abhijit Muhurat occurs every day except on Wednesday (Budhwar), making it available 6 days a week for auspicious activities.
