Hora Chakra: Understanding Planetary Hours for Daily Success
What is Hora Chakra?
Hora Chakra or Planetary Hour System is an ancient Vedic timekeeping system that divides each day into 24 horas (hours), with each hora ruled by a specific planet. This system is used to determine the most auspicious times for performing different tasks based on the ruling planet of the hour.
The word “Hora” is derived from Sanskrit, meaning hour, and is deeply rooted in Vedic astrology. Each planet influences different aspects of life, and understanding their influence during the day helps individuals make better decisions.
How Hora Timings Work
- Each day of the week is ruled by a planet (e.g., Sunday by the Sun, Monday by the Moon).
- The first hora of the day (starting from sunrise) is ruled by the planet of that weekday.
- The rest of the hours follow a fixed sequence of planetary rulers:
- Sun (Surya)
- Venus (Shukra)
- Mercury (Budha)
- Moon (Chandra)
- Saturn (Shani)
- Jupiter (Guru)
- Mars (Mangal)
This sequence keeps repeating every hour throughout the day and night.
Importance of Each Planet’s Hora
Here’s a breakdown of what each planetary hour (hora) is best used for:
Planet | Ruling Deity | Best For | Avoid For |
---|---|---|---|
Sun (Surya) | Power, Authority | Government work, leadership, career talks | Emotional decisions |
Moon (Chandra) | Mind, Emotions | Buying clothes, family meetings, travel | Legal matters |
Mars (Mangal) | Energy, Courage | Physical activities, construction, competitions | Marriage discussions |
Mercury (Budha) | Communication | Business, interviews, education | Surgery |
Jupiter (Guru) | Wisdom, Growth | Spiritual work, teaching, financial investments | Fights |
Venus (Shukra) | Love, Art, Beauty | Marriage, entertainment, home décor | Legal cases |
Saturn (Shani) | Discipline, Hard Work | Long-term projects, labor work, land dealings | Quick results |
