What is Hora (ஓரை)?

Hora (ஓரை) is a one-hour planetary period used in Tamil and Vedic astrology. Each day is divided into 24 hora slots — 12 during the day (sunrise to sunset) and 12 during the night (sunset to sunrise). Each slot is ruled by one of seven planets: Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, and Saturn.

The sequence of planets follows the Chaldean order: Saturn → Jupiter → Mars → Sun → Venus → Mercury → Moon. The first hora of the day is determined by the weekday planet — Sunday begins with Sun hora, Monday with Moon hora, Tuesday with Mars hora, and so on. After the 7th planet, the cycle repeats.

Auspicious horas (Jupiter, Venus, Mercury, Moon) are ideal for starting new ventures, signing agreements, beginning journeys, or any important work. Inauspicious horas (Sun, Mars, Saturn) are generally avoided for new beginnings, though routine work is unaffected.

The times shown here are calculated for Chennai (IST) based on today's actual sunrise and sunset times. For other cities, times will vary. See Today's full Panchangam for all daily timings.

What is Hora (ஓரை) in Tamil Panchangam?
Hora (ஓரை) is a one-hour planetary period in Vedic astrology. Each day has 24 horas — 12 during the day and 12 at night — each ruled by one of 7 planets (Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn). Auspicious horas (Jupiter, Venus, Mercury, Moon) are favourable for starting new work.

How is Hora calculated?
The 24-hour day is divided into 24 hora slots — 12 from sunrise to sunset (day horam) and 12 from sunset to next sunrise (night horam). The first hora of the day is the weekday planet (Sunday = Sun, Monday = Moon, etc.), then the Chaldean order continues. Each slot's duration equals (sunset−sunrise)÷12 for day horas.
Does hora change every day?
Yes. Because sunrise and sunset times change daily, the hora slot durations vary slightly each day. The planet sequence is fixed by weekday, but start/end times shift with sunrise. Always check the current day's table for accurate timings.
