Choghadiya Today — Wellington
Monday, 2026-10-12 · Wellington, New Zealand · UTC+13
Sunrise
06:39
Sunset
19:36
Each day slot
97 min
Computed from Wellington's own sunrise and sunset with the Swiss Ephemeris — not a national table with the city name changed. That is why the slot length above is 97 minutes rather than a flat 90.

Which choghadiya opens each day in Wellington

Amrit, Shubh and Labh in Wellington for the next 30 days
From each day's sunrise and sunset in Wellington. Amrit falls in daylight on 30 of these 30 days; a dash means that slot is in the night that day.

When Wellington's clocks change
Wellington moves from UTC+13 to UTC+12 on 2027-04-04. The choghadiya follow the Sun, not the clock, so every slot keeps its place in the day while its clock time jumps: on 2027-04-04 sunrise, where the first day choghadiya begins, reads 06:40 on the new clock and would have read 07:40 on the old one.
Why Wellington needs its own table
Summer against winter
In Wellington a day choghadiya runs 68 min at the June solstice and 113 min at the December one, because the day arc itself changes length. Night runs the other way: 112 min against 67 min. Any table quoting a fixed 90 is wrong in both seasons.
Against the nearest city
Auckland is only 493 km from Wellington, and its sunrise today is 06:43 against Wellington's 06:39. Every one of the sixteen slots shifts with it, which is why this is computed per city rather than per region.
Over the year, Wellington's solar arc moves enough to swing an eighth of the day by 45 minutes end to end.
Frequently asked
What is the shubh choghadiya today in Wellington?
Today's auspicious day slots in Wellington are Amrit (06:39–08:16), Shubh (09:53–11:30), Labh (16:21–17:59), Amrit (17:59–19:36). Amrit is the strongest, then Shubh, then Labh.
Is a choghadiya always 90 minutes?
No. A choghadiya is one-eighth of the day arc, so it stretches and shrinks with sunrise and sunset. In Wellington today the day slots run 97 minutes each and the night slots 83.
Which choghadiya should I avoid?
Rog, Kaal and Udveg. In Wellington today they fall at Kaal 08:16–09:53, Rog 11:30–13:07, Udveg 13:07–14:44. Char is neutral and is the traditional slot for travel. Udveg is ruled by the Sun and is a separate thing from Rahu Kaal, which is ruled by Rahu.
Why does night choghadiya not repeat the day sequence?
Because it begins five positions further into the same cycle, and runs from sunset to the following sunrise rather than for a fixed twelve hours. Tonight in Wellington it opens with Char at 19:36.
Choghadiya in other cities
Wellington shares this. Your chart does not.
These windows come from the Sun and the weekday, so a whole city shares them. Whether a period is actually good for you depends on your own running dasha and the transits over your chart.
