Choghadiya in Sydney today

In Sydney today, Saturday, September 19, 2026, the sun rises at 5:50 AM and sets at 5:49 PM, giving 12 hr of daylight. Divided into eight, each day choghadiya runs 1 hr 30 min. The night, from 5:49 PM to tomorrow’s sunrise at 5:48 AM, is 11 hr 59 min, so each night choghadiya runs 1 hr 30 min. The day periods are longer than the night ones at this time of year.

Today is a Saturday, so the day opens with Kaal at sunrise and the night opens with Labh at sunset. The auspicious daylight periods in Sydney fall at Shubh 7:20 AM – 8:49 AM, Labh 1:19 PM – 2:49 PM, Amrit 2:49 PM – 4:19 PM; the ones to avoid are Kaal 5:50 AM – 7:20 AM, Rog 8:49 AM – 10:19 AM, Udveg 10:19 AM – 11:49 AM, Kaal 4:19 PM – 5:49 PM.

These are Sydney’s own boundaries. A city a few hundred kilometres east or west has a different sunrise, and every one of the sixteen periods shifts with it, which is why a choghadiya table for another city is not a substitute for this one.

Choghadiya in Sydney: questions

What is the best choghadiya today in Sydney?

In daylight: Shubh 7:20 AM – 8:49 AM, Labh 1:19 PM – 2:49 PM, Amrit 2:49 PM – 4:19 PM. After sunset: Labh 5:49 PM – 7:19 PM, Shubh 8:49 PM – 10:19 PM, Amrit 10:19 PM – 11:49 PM, Labh 4:18 AM – 5:48 AM. Amrit is treated as the best of them, Shubh for anything meant to last, and Labh for gain; all three are fine for a beginning. Times are for Sydney on Saturday, September 19, 2026.

How long is one choghadiya in Sydney today?

1 hr 30 min by day and 1 hr 30 min by night. Daylight in Sydney today is 12 hr and the night is 11 hr 59 min; each is divided into eight equal parts, so the nominal 96 minutes is only a name.

Does Rahu Kaal fall inside a good choghadiya today in Sydney?

Rahu Kaal in Sydney today runs 8:49 AM – 10:19 AM, which overlaps Rog (8:49 AM – 10:19 AM). None of those is an auspicious period, so the two systems do not conflict today: the good choghadiya windows are all clear of Rahu Kaal.

What is the first choghadiya at sunrise today in Sydney?

Kaal, from 5:50 AM – 7:20 AM, because today is a Saturday, and the day sequence for that weekday always opens on Kaal. The night sequence tonight opens with Labh at 5:49 PM.
