Hora in Chennai today

Hora in Chennai today, Saturday, September 19, 2026, begins at sunrise, 5:58 AM, with the hour of Saturn, since a Saturday always opens on its own lord. Daylight here is 12 hr 9 min, so each of the twelve day horas is 1 hr 1 min; the night from 6:07 PM is 11 hr 51 min, so each night hora is 59 min. A "planetary hour" is only sixty minutes at the equinox.

The benefic hours in Chennai’s daylight today (Jupiter, Venus, Mercury and the Moon) are Jupiter 6:59 AM – 8:00 AM, Venus 10:01 AM – 11:02 AM, Mercury 11:02 AM – 12:03 PM, Moon 12:03 PM – 1:03 PM, Jupiter 2:04 PM – 3:05 PM, Venus 5:07 PM – 6:07 PM. Sun, Mars and Saturn hours are used for their own kinds of work rather than avoided outright; the table gives each hour’s traditional use.
