Varjyam —

What is Varjyam?

Varjyam (also Varjam, వర్జ్యం) is an inauspicious window of about 1 hour 36 minutes each day that is traditionally avoided for beginning anything important.

How Varjyam is Calculated

Like Amrutha Kalam, Varjyam is derived from the day’s Nakshatram — each Nakshatra has a fixed offset at which Varjyam begins, running for one-fifteenth of the nakshatra’s duration (about 1h36m). Because it tracks the nakshatra’s start and end — which depend on your local sunrise — the clock time varies by city. It is the inauspicious counterpart of Amrutha Gadiyalu.

How this is computed. Timings run in your browser using the Astronomy Engine (VSOP87) with the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa — the same engine behind this site’s daily Panchangam. Because Varjyam depends on your local sunrise, the clock time is specific to the city you choose. For rituals and muhurthams, always confirm with your family purohit.

Frequently Asked

Does Varjyam change by city?
Yes. It is tied to your local sunrise and the day’s Nakshatram, so the clock time differs between, say, Hyderabad, Toronto and Sydney. Pick your city above for the correct local time.

Is Varjyam good or bad?
