Q- What are Muhurtas?
A-
When a day of 1440 minutes,
Is divided by 48 which is the duration,
Of auspicious Time Muhurta,
We get Muhurtas thirty.
15 Diurnal Muhurtas,
Reckoned from Sunrise,
And 15 Nocturnal Muhurtas,
Reckoned from Sunset.
Each M is presided by a Star,
And so 30 stars rule 30 Ms.
The 16 Annabha stars are auspicious,
The rest 11 not.
Start and End are given in minutes,
To make computation easier.
To get Muhurta/ Electional Ascendant,
And auspicious Electional Time.
A powerful benefic rising,
Like Jupiter and Venus,
Least Doshas with Ascendant auspicious,
All these are great benedictions !
Brahma Muhurta is defined as the penultimate Muhurta before Rise
and is given by the Equation
B M = Sunrise – 96 minutes to Sunrise – 48 minutes
Sunrise varies from day to day and from latitude to latitude.
Q _ How do we compute Brahma Muhurta ?
A -Suppose Sunrise = 06.30 AM, Convert Sunrise time into minutes
6*60+30 = 390 minutes
risem = 390 min
rm = 390
Brahma Muhurta is the penultimate Muhurta, amongst the 30 Muhurtas ( 30*45=1440 mins = 24 hours )
In other words. Brahma M occurs in the 29th Muhurta, after 28 Muhurtas ( 28*48 )
have elapsed or after 1734 minutes have elapsed.
viz Elapsed Time = 390 + (28*48)
Elapse , e = 28*48 minutes from Sunrise
Expunge multiples of 1440
= 1734%1440
= 294 minutes
= 4 h 54 A M to 05 42 A M
Free Source Codes for Computing Abhijith
The Auspicious Abhijit Muhurta
Abhijith is the 28th constellation and is considered male-
in contrast to the 27 wives of the Moon- the 27 constellations
which tenant the Ecliptic,which are considered female.
Mythology has it that Moon used to stay with his 27 wives
and loved Rohini more. He is exalted in Taurus. Abhijith
starts from 6 deg 40 minutes in Sidereal Capricorn and
extends upto 10 deg 53 min 40 seconds in that Sign.
A Muhurta is 48 minutes or 2 Nadis ( 2* 24 minutes ). Diurnal
or nocturnal duration is divided by 12 and we get 15 Muhurtas
in a day. The 8th Muhurtha occurring in a day is the auspicious
Abhijith Muhurtha.
